Re: [gdm-list] Why is PostSession skipped at shutdown or restart?

The PostSession script is designed to run at the end of the user
session.  It should be run if shutdown/restart is triggered from
inside the user's session since the user session should be
exited before the shutdown/restart.

However, the script is not intended to be run if shutdown/restart
is triggered from the GDM login dialog itself.

If the PostSession script is not called when the system is shutdown
or restart from the user session, then this sounds like a bug, and
a bugzilla entry would be helpful.
