Package: xbindkeys Version: 1.8.5-1 Severity: important
If X11 is started by gdm or any other session-manager which honors /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ then the session is started using dbus-launch, which passes the appropriate environment variables. When a configuration file .xbindkeyrc is found in the home directory and the script /etc/X11/Xsession.d/98xbindkeys is sourced, xbindkeys is executed "outside" of the session. More precisely it does not get the appropriate env variable DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS. Any further execution of xbindkeys (e.g. in the user .Xsession file) will fail. This is similar in spirit to bug #628654, which deals with ssh-agent. WORKAROUND: Put .xbindkeysrc in a non standard location to avoid automatic execution. Then execute xbindkeys from your Xsession file. SOLUTION: Remove /etc/X11/Xsession.d/98xbindkeys from the package. NOTE: this bug is particularly annoying since I use no desktop and avoid the mouse. All terminals, file managers and emacs instances are started by xbindkeys. None of this software have access to DBUS, gnome-keyring-daemon, ecc... -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers oneiric-updates APT policy: (500, 'oneiric-updates'), (500, 'oneiric-security'), (500, 'oneiric') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-15-generic (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=it_IT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xbindkeys depends on: ii guile-1.8-libs 1.8.8+1-6ubuntu2 Core Guile libraries ii libc6 2.13-20ubuntu5 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libx11-6 2:1.4.4-2ubuntu1 X11 client-side library xbindkeys recommends no packages.
