Hello, since, in my experience, trying stuff on a fresh sid install has never fixed anything, I dug a little deeper. Turns out the xrdp upgrade (0.6 branch --> 0.9 branch) had left a conffile mess in /etc/pam.d: sesman.orig xrdp-sesman -> sesman [dangling symlink] xrdp-sesman.dpkg-new
Removing all three and purging-installing xrdp left me with just xrdp-sesman [plain file] there -- and a working reportbug! I'd have expected either the purge of 0.6.1 or the one of 0.9.0 to get rid of such cruft. It didn't, obviously. There wasn't any warning during install/configure either. So for me it's fixed, but maybe something can be improved in the upgrade process? Also, this had apparently been reported already (against reportbug) as #826534. Sorry for the dupe. I'll drop a note there but leave it to you whether to reassign and merge.
