Title:
  gnome-session is registered in alternatives system by wrong package

Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Currently, the gnome-session binary is shipped in "gnome-session-bin
  package", but it's registered in the alternatives system (as
  /usr/bin/x-session-manager) by a completely unrelated "gnome-session"
  package which ships configuration files for Ubuntu, Ubuntu-2d and
  other sessions. Therefore, derivatives using gnome-session but not
  Unity and not shipping the package with configuration files don't get
  gnome-session binary registered in the alternatives system.
