One of the upgrades was Xfce 4.10 -> 4.12. After rebooting Xfce no longer starts. My ~/.xsession script only runs "exec startxfce4". I noticed that the startxfce4 script is provided by both "xfce" and "xfce-session". startxfce4 fails with this error: /gnu/store/...-xfce4-session-4.12.0/bin/startxfce4: line 118: exec: xinit: not found After installing the "xinit" package I get this error on running "startxfce4": xinit: error while loading shared libraries: /gnu/store/...-libxdmcp-1.1.1/lib/libXdmcp.so.6: file too short. Has anyone else run into issues like this? ~~ Ricardo
