[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#596477: xfce4-session: Running apps get restarted next session, though "Automatically save session" is inactive

[Andreas Neudecker]

Package: xfce4-session
Version: 4.6.2-1
Severity: normal

xfce4-session does not honour the setting of Settings->Session and Startup->[ ]
Automatically save session on startup.

Even if this checkbox is UNCHECKED in the settings dialogue, the value of
SaveOnExit in xfce4-session->general is still TRUE.

I get the impression that the value of SaveOnExit is never evaluated or set in
the settings dialogue Settings->"Session and Startup" and is always TRUE,
unless you edit it in the settings editor.

Regards

Andreas
