Comment 11 for bug 1879352

Thanks, your latest comment made me realize what the error message in the bug description actually says.

But neither im-config nor x11-common (which provides /etc/X11/Xsession.d/99x11-common_start) does that kind of double quoting AFAICT. The code appears not to be more complex than:

~$ sh
$ START="/usr/bin/apt --version"
$ exec $START
apt 2.0.2ubuntu0.1 (amd64)
~$

And it has worked for many cycles with the common default DMs such as GDM, LightDM and SDDM. So the code should reasonably not be changed without making sure it works everywhere.

Even if I finally understand the nature of the error message, it's not clear to me how that error message gets triggered when using i3.
