Package: xbase-clients
Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4
Severity: normal
File: /usr/X11R6/bin/startx


I noticed I had a $HOME littered with .serverauth.nnnn files, after a bit of
prodding, I found that if startx is cut short by eg a shutdown, it doesn't get
as far as deleting the $xserverauthfile file.

There doesn't seem to be anything in place to delete these orphaned files, so
they perhaps need a similar mechanism to $removelist to tidy them up at next
restart.
