bug#26158: Gnome starts unreliably

[Florian Pelz]

I believe my unreliable launching of GNOME is unrelated. For me,
/var/log/messages shows output like

Mar 21 11:53:31 localhost vmunix: [   86.999947] .gnome-session-[442]:
segfault at 0 ip 00007f7b3141fce9 sp 00007ffd69b89560 error 4 in
libgtk-3.so.0.2200.6[7f7b3114a000+6ed000]

after a crash which I will investigate further with debug output for
gnome-session at a later time.

Ah, I did not know. Good to know. Now my manifest is shorter. ;)
