Public bug reported:

The X server in Kubuntu 24.04 no longer creates UNIX display sockets in
/tmp/.X11-unix, even after enabling both abstract sockets (-listen
local) and UNIX sockets (-listen unix):

$ pgrep -a Xorg
1991 /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg -listen local -listen unix -listen tcp -background none 
-seat seat0 vt2 -auth /run/sddm/xauth_SfFvKB -noreset -displayfd 16
$

$ ll /tmp/.X11-unix/
total 2256
drwxrwxrwt  2 root root    4096 nov 26  2024 ./
drwxrwxrwt 22 root root 2301952 nov 26  2024 ../
$

I expected that the -listen unix option would create UNIX sockets.
Without UNIX sockets many apps fail to connect to the X server (e.g.
docker, ssh).
