Bug Description
Hey,
a Debian user reported a bug asking for support of a “Xclient” session similar to GDM. Basically it doesn't require a .desktop file specifying the session, but directly runs what's in .xsession.
Another way might be to add a “Default session” entry which would let the Xsession wrapper do the job. In Debian, we set it to /etc/X11/Xsession which will fall back to that file.
Changed in lightdm (Debian): | |

When using the /etc/X11/Xsession wrapper, one can use the attached lightdm- xsession. desktop file, which will use the default Xsession (see Xsession(5)).
