At the top of /etc/X11/Xsession, a comment is given:
# global Xsession file -- used by both xdm and xinit (startx)
However, neither xinit or startx appear to be aware of its existence.
Does anyone know whether this is a question of the comment being
obsolete, ahead of its time, or simply wrong?

Hi,
just in case you haven't noticed yet, I've uploaded a fixed

I've reverted a patch that caused problems.

Ok,
let us a little bit summarize:

2. every NMU must be with source
