Binary package hint: gdm
Bug 60448 discusses the problem about ~/.xsession-errors growing unbearably large when there are buggy programs spamming it. One remedy is to allow ~/.xsession-errors to be a symlink to e. g. /dev/null or a local file, so that you can at least avoid network contention if ~ is on NFS.
spm sent a first patch for this (https://launchpadlibrarian.net/70203386/gdm-session-worker.c.diff). This should be cleaned up to use g_file_test() and reported upstream. |

SRU TEST CASE:
* Remove ~/.xsession-errors and ~/.xsession-errors.old
* ln -s /tmp/xe ~/.xsession-errors
* Reboot and log back in.
-> Current behavior: the ~/.xsession-errors symlink gets rotated to ~/.xsession-errors.old, and a new ~/.xsession-errors is created as a regular file.
-> Desired behaviour: ~/.xsession-errors remains a symlink, and the target file /tmp/xe is truncated for the new session. |
