why have the gnome devs changed the path? kde also installs their session file to /etc/X11/sessions. I expect this to be the place where DMs will look for it.

lxde also install session file to /usr/share/xsession.

i think just put it in the default dir will be fine. it's a little difficult for me to write login script to find these session.

PS: and openbox use /usr/share/xsession, too.

Fedora and Debian also use /usr/share/xsessions/ - I'll fix it in svn for the next pkg bump.
