lxsession-logout broken

[brummer]

Hi
I must admit that I've didn't made a dist-upgrade for some time, so I've 1248 packages to update, more that 100 to new install, and 14 to remove. However, the update runs smooth without a problem. I've switched from gdm3 to lightdm because gdm3 was marked to be removed. Tested it before dist-upgrade, and all work.
Now, lxsession-logout didn't work any more, when I run it in terminal I get:

Code Select Expand

lxsession-logout

(lxsession-logout:3147): GLib-WARNING **: GError set over the top of a previous GError or uninitialized memory.
This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL before it's set.
The overwriting error message was: Kindprozess »lsb_release« konnte nicht ausgeführt werden (Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden)
Speicherzugriffsfehler

I could solve it with

Code Select Expand

apt-get install lsb-release
even when lsb_release gives:
No LSB modules are available.
lxsession-logout works again, and the logout widget with all selections is shown again.


So, as I said, didn't update for long time, I didn't know if this is a new issue or long known, or, maybe just infect me in this situation.

Just notice that the shutdown button didn't work, to make it work I need to remove systemd, which was installed during the dist-upgrade.

apt-get install systemd-sysv
apt-mark hold systemd-sysv
