It's true that removing lxsession-logout will render you unable to logout of the desktop using the desktop logout button.
Running this command: $ sudo apt-get purge lxsession-logout Results in: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10558139 Relevant bit: The following packages will be REMOVED: lubuntu-core* lubuntu-default-session* lubuntu-default-settings* lubuntu-desktop* lxsession-logout* This is a tangled web of dependencies. After rebooting (with "sudo reboot"), I have more or less an LXDE desktop, but without the Lubuntu style. Trying to hit "Logout" from this interesting thing seems to do nothing, but then 5 seconds later, x screensaver goes into effect - apparently it defaults to "lock screen option" when lxsession-logout is removed. Most things still function just fine. This might be something to look at on a wishlist, but I don't think removing lxsession-logout is a likely occurrence. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1423326 Title: lxsession should depend on lxsession-logout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxsession/+bug/1423326/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
