It may well have, but it's a change that's bad. For what it's worth, the Debian manuals still document this:
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian- reference/ch07.en.html#_customizing_the_x_session_classic_method I've been a member of the Linux community for 20 years--Take comfort in the fact that these shell scripts have often changed rather arbitrarily over the years on many different distributions, and the owners of those changes seemingly do not understand the consequences of the changes they have made. This stuff was designed this way for a reason... It's supposed to make it easy for the user to customize their X window system session regardless of what shell they use or how they have their environment set up. This change is one of several that actually work against that goal. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1468834 Title: lightdm does not source .xsession To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1468834/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
