Hi!

I have this problem since 3 month ago (comes from
========= SCRAPER REMOVED AN EMBEDDED LINK HERE ===========
url was:"antix.freeforu ms.org/lxde-not-works-after-dist-upgrade-t4571.html"
linktext was:"there"
====================================
)

LXDE instalation at Antix use lxsession-edit or lxpolkit in some place...
This packages are removed on the last version from testing (4.9.2), it means that Antix+LXDE not works using Debian testing... at least for me. I have marked lxsession as"hold".

Any one can confirm the bug? How I can find where is used lxsession-edit or lxpolkit ?

Does this does work for you?
apt-get upgrade lxde
If not, you might try to apt-get remove (not purge) lxde, immediately followed by
apt-get install --no-install-recommends lxde

All needed lxde packages are, in fact, present in the testing(jessie) and unstable(sid) repositories.
(when you install"lxde", dpkg finds/installs lxsession-edit and all other dependencies)

apt-get upgrade lxde from testing is the current status, that not works.
After install the lxde packages from testing I must downgrade lxsession to the one from stable repositories, otherwise antix 13 not work with lxde.

I don't understand the fix... looks like the solution is upgrade the lxpanel from SID but have some dependencies... I think that is more safe for my environment maintain the lxsession package on hold.
I'll track the progress of lxpanel and check if future versions at testing fix the problem.

Thanks for your help.

Last version of lxpanel (0.5.12-3) not fix the problem.
