Bug#376391: xdm: xdm manpage refers to non-existent section 'Typical Usage'



Package: xdm
Version: 1:1.0.4-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Hello,

in section 'Session Program', 3rd paragraph, the xdm manpage states:

  At most installations, Xsession should look in $HOME for a file
  .xsession, which contains commands that each user would like to use
  as a ses‐ sion.  Xsession should also implement a system default
  session if no user-specified session exists.  See the section
  Typical Usage.

However, the section 'Typical Usage' isn't present in the manpage.
The attached patch removes the last sentence.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
