Comment 1 for bug 61726

I'm having a problem with ~/.profile and ~/.xprofile as well....

A user's ~/.profile or ~/.xprofile can set aliases or modify paths and
affect further execution of Xsession.

example:

--in run_parts() --

for F in $(ls $1); do
    if expr "$F" : '[[:alnum:]_-]\+$' > /dev/null 2>&1; then
      if [ -f "$1/$F" ]; then
        echo "$1/$F"

--

but if a user has set in their ~/.profile

alias ls='ls -CF'

then run_parts() breaks.

In my example, gnome-power-manager complained about the dbus service because /etc/X11/Xsession.d/75dbus_dbus-launch never ran

I propose moving the the ~/.profile and ~/.xprofile stanza later in
the script. Although a better solution might be to path-qualify all
the shell commands.

I've attached the patch for the change that worked for me.
