Title:
  52_xdg_current_desktop.patch

Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This patch does bad thing - it will overwrite XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP if
  it was set before.

  There is new standard - DesktopNames that is used to set
  XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP. LightDM will set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP if
  DesktopNames has been added in session .desktop file. But it will be
  overwritten by GNOME if gnome-session will not find DesktopName in
  .session file.

  Fix should be simple - set to default value - GNOME - only if
  XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP is not set.

  This probably should be fixed in vivid and utopic.
