Bug Description

Maximus hasn't been used by the Ubuntu netbook edition, or by any other meta-package, since Maverick, which therefore implies that someone who installed Maximus deliberately wants all windows maximized at all times. As such, the correct location for the autostart file indeed is the standard /etc/xdg/autostart and yet the current packaging insists upon placing it in the obsolete /etc/xdg/xdg-une-efl/autostart location, making it unusable by default on a normal desktop session. This need to be fixed.
