I mean this: http://np237.livejournal.com/22014.html http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=552387 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471980 ...etc, basically any OS/distribution that adopted 2.24 has been heavilly bitten by this major regression (try google a few discussions just for the lulz factor, though seriously, the whole situation is not that much humorous) and so far I heard that only Gentoo ships (probably somewhat modified/patched, though I'm not a Linux user and would need to check their repos first) gnome-session 2.22 to address it. Anyway, my question is (while i'm still syncing the ports) - was the issue addressed on FreeBSD's side, if not, are there any plans to address it "really soon", and if not (god save us), can someone please at least put a neon blinking warning in UPDATING? I've seen a few Linux early adopters of Gnome 2.24 on a verge of suicide then they learned that session management (as we know it) has been shot in the head, without any replacement in sight.. m.
