[Bug 806120] [NEW] ~/.xsession does not get run but Xsession(5) still says it does

 

Public bug reported:

Xsession(5) still says that $HOME/.xsession can contain commands for
invoking X clients. But in natty $HOME/.xsession does not get run.

(/etc/X11/Xsession sources all the scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ and
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/50x11-common_determine-startup only sources the
user's .xsession if the STARTUP variable has not been set. But it has
been set, to "gnome-session --session=ubuntu".)
