Bug Description

Hi,

when I boot my system, the following warning message is logged:

# journalctl | grep /var/lib/gdm3
Apr 13 18:22:56 vougeot org.gnome.Shell.desktop[3472]: Window manager warning: Failed to parse saved session file: Failed to open file “/var/lib/gdm3/.config/mutter/sessions/10f526ebe1d06fb2ad164986697481519100000034530000.ms”: No such file or directory

Note that the missing file depends on the system. For instance, on another system:

# journalctl | grep /var/lib/gdm3
