There has been a big change with the move to 4.0 and prior to that, but I doubt they changed the behavior of this command. What happens with our current package is that your session terminates and you get back to the login screen. It must be some problem with lua or lua modules, because when you have lua (just lua) in your profile, you get to see a message (OSD) "unable to login" or something like that. At the moment I can't provide logs. -- ♥Ⓐ ng0 -- https://www.inventati.org/patternsinthechaos/
