[Bug 1451256] [NEW] user "daisy" can log in but user "karel" gets a blank X-screen

 

Public bug reported:

When logging in as "karel" I get a blank X screen, which is perfectly
functional as such - from a terminal I can launch "firefox --display :0"
and so forth - but user Karel does not get a window manager active. For
newly created user "daisy" everything works as expected. Not sure this
is a bug, though, the trouble started after some twiddling with adding
and removing packages.
