After installing gdm 3.20.0-1, my .xsession did not start anymore. After login in GDM, I returned immediately to GDM again.

I filed a bug upstream and the fix to the problem.

Did you actually read the commit message? This change is intentional.

If you want to execute a custom session, add a .desktop file for it in /usr/share/xsessions/ or /usr/share/wayland-sessions/
