Package: e16-data
Version: 1.0.0-1
Severity: important
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
e16 is not started by gnome-session 2.26.2-1.
/usr/share/e16/misc/starte16 calls /usr/bin/gnome-session, but --debug
shows
gnome-session[5587]: DEBUG(+): GsmManager: ID:
/org/gnome/SessionManager/App26 app-id:e16.desktop is-disabled:1
is-conditionally-disabled:0
[...]
gnome-session[5587]: DEBUG(+): app /org/gnome/SessionManager/App26 not
installed or not for GNOME
/usr/bin/gnome-session checks the e16 desktop file
(/usr/share/applications/e16.desktop) to see whether it is
"disabled" (see line 127 in function is_disabled() in
gnome-session-2.26.2/gnome-session/gsm-autostart-app.c). This "check"
fails if the "Type" field is anything other than "Application" or
"Link" (see line 487 in egg_desktop_file_can_launch() in
gnome-session-2.26.2/egg/eggdesktopfile.c).
Changing the "Type" field from "XSession" to "Application" fixes the
problem (see attached trivial patch).
Not sure whether this should be reported to the gnome-session folks,
though.
