Hi,

Sorry but I don't know where to address preferably this tiny issue.
Currently my desktop session is a GNOME (Shell) one and I was curious about the
following
complain found in ~/.cache/gdm/session.log:

[...]
x-session-manager[5669]: WARNING: Could not parse desktop file
xscreensaver.desktop or it references a not found TryExec binary

For me, this seems to be due to /etc/xdg/autostart/xscreensaver.desktop
provided by the xfce4-session package.

Ok I may understand that this file is provided even without any xscreensaver
package installed
(and so it has not to be part of xscreensaver).
But why then the GNOME session tries to do something with it as it is also
specified:
OnlyShowIn=XFCE;

Regards,
Patrice

I guess you need to ask gnome-session people?
