    - debian/gnome-session-bin.postinst, debian/gnome-session-bin.prerm:
       Moved registering gnome-session binary as a session manager to
       gnome-session-bin package
    - don't install defaults.list (installed by desktop-file-utils in ubuntu):
      debian/gnome-session-common.dirs and gnome-session-common.install
    - debian/patches/13_display_session_properties.patch: Display
      session-properties as the Startup Applications capplet was removed from
      gnome-control-center, which makes it hard to discover the
      gnome-session-properties tool. (Closes: #683814)
    - debian/patches/22_support_autostart_delay.patch:
       Bugzilla patch to support adding a delay to autostart apps, using

    - debian/patches/50_ubuntu_sessions.patch:
       + Add Ubuntu session
       + gnome-shell.desktop adds --session=gnome now that the "ubuntu" session

    - debian/patches/51_remove_session_saving_from_gui.patch:
       add GNOME_SESSION_SAVE environment variable for people wanting to
       use the save session still, knowing that it can break your system

    - debian/patches/53_add_sessionmigration.patch, debian/control:
      recommends and launch the session-migration if present at the start of
      the session. This sync tool is running different session migration

      "RequestReboot" DBus methods to allow other applications to shutdown or
      reboot the machine via the session manager.
    - debian/patches/103_kill_the_fail_whale.patch: Kill the Fail Whale as it
      tends to be more annoying than helpful
    - debian/patches/revert_remove_gnome_session_properties.patch: Keep the
      session-properties applet for ubuntu sessions

 The GNOME Session Manager is in charge of starting the core components
 of the GNOME desktop, and applications that should be launched at

 running applications.

 This package contains the required components for the standard GNOME 3
 session, based on the GNOME Shell. It can be started from a display
