Where gnome-session just gets deleted and not updated.
Hugo
I've updated several months ago and I don't real remember what I did
to get it working... Maybe someone could shed some light on this.
Just curious: what happens if you try to install gnome-session
before dist-upgrading?
$sudo aptitude install -t experimental gnome-session
Cheers!

I'm looking gnome-session from sid and experimental and the unstable
version is newer than the experimental one, so maybe that's the reason
apt wants to remove it.
and maybe you want to install gnome-session from sid and not from
experimental, as I mentioned early :)
