xfce4-session fails to auto-login after update

[Nick Fox]

Binary package hint: xfce4-session

The system was unable to login/autologin after the update to the installed verison of xfce4-session. The error referenced missing metacity files, hoever metacity was not installed. Moving the ~/.cache and ~/.config dirs out so they could be re-created allowed me to login. I will attach those files for dagnostic data.
