---------------
xfce4-session (4.7.2-0ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low

  * Upload to natty (pkg-xfce svn r4617), remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - debian/control:
      + use our Vcs-* fields
      + build-depends on libgconf2-dev and libgnome-keyring-dev to enable
        GNOME services support.
    - debian/rules: pass --enable-gnome --enable-libgnome-keyring to
      dh_auto_configure.
  * Re-enable xfce4-panel support as we have 4.7.x in natty.

Title:
  XFCE4-Session doesn't use the ConsoleKit interface to shutdown or reboot

Status in Xfce4 session manager:
  Unknown
Status in “xfce4-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “xfce4-session” source package in Maverick:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xfce4-session

The current XFCE4-Session in Lucid (4.6.1) is using HAL to perform reboots and halts when selected from the menus.  HAL is going away from being a supported app for shutdown or reboot in Ubuntu during the Lucid development cycle.

XFCE4-session should migrate to using the ConsoleKit interface to perform these shutdown and reboots.
