Bug Description
Binary package hint: lightdm
Hi
"xauth list" times out in locking the authority file here; strace-ing it shows that permissions prevent xauth list from working properly.
open("/
drwx--x--x 3 root root 60 2011-06-18 11:33 /var/run/lightdm
xauth list is called notably by "ssh -XY hostname".
Cheers,
