[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#626598: [xfce4-session] session not ACTIVE, pam_loginuid.so as "session optional"

[Marek Straka]

Package: xfce4-session
Version: 4.8.1-2
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

There is something wrong with default installation of XFCE.
During updates libpam-runtime was removed from config /etc/pam.d/common-session row:
session optional   pam_loginuid.so
After that is the session in tty7 always "active = FALSE" With all consequences.
I do not have any .xinitrc and also any .xsesions.rc

I do not have a clue how this session management works. But I got this problem already on 2 systems where I have
updated xfce to version 4.8
