Other than the gratuitous shebang line change, the rest of the patch appears to be fairly sane/safe. I'll review it against the current sources soon, and probably apply it. Thanks Than
Hm, right now I see two different copies of Xsession - /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession and /etc/kde/kdm/Xsession and the difference between the two is exactly that the kdm one appears to have the attached patch applied (including the "gratuitous shebang line change" ;-) ).
A slightly modified version of the attached patch has been applied to CVS and will be in xinitrc-3.38-1 in rawhide soon.
New packages built in dist-fc2-hold, pending unlocking of dist-fc2, so packages can be moved over and sync'd with rawhide. Thanks also Aleksey for the reminder!
Please do not forget to remove the outdated duplicate /etc/kde/kdm/Xsession from kdebase now.
Thanks Aleksey, I've filed bug #119503 to track the removal of the kdebase Xsession script.
