* Team upload
* d/gbp.conf: Configure branches for Debian 12 stable updates
* Open text files in gnome-text-editor if gedit is not installed.
The preinstalled text editor for Debian GNOME systems was changed
from gedit in Debian 11 to gnome-text-editor in Debian 12, but this
file was not updated to match, resulting in various plain-text formats
being opened in Libreoffice Writer rather than gnome-text-editor in a
default task-gnome-desktop installation with no further configuration.
To preserve current behaviour for systems that have gedit installed
(perhaps as a result of them having been upgraded from Debian 11 to
12), for all file types that were previously handled with gedit,
continue to use gedit by default if it happens to be installed,
but fall back to gnome-text-editor if gedit is not present.
The preference order is likely to change to gnome-text-editor as
default, with gedit as a fallback, in Debian 13.

This was no longer needed in either gdm3 or gnome-control-center

[ Simon McVittie ]
* d/rules: Configure with systemd_session=default on Linux.
On Linux systems that have dbus-user-session, we now prefer systemd
mode, as we did in bullseye (until it was accidentally disabled in
40.1.1-2). On systems that do not, such as those using sysvinit, we'll
fall back to the old code path with a warning.
The old code path will not necessarily remain supported by upstream
forever, since one of the motivations for the systemd mode was to
simplify GNOME session startup, but at the moment it still works.

gnome-session (40.1.1-3) unstable; urgency=medium
* Team upload
* Partially revert changes to gnomerc handling in previous version.
The previous version moved handling of two Debian-specific
and GNOME-specific features from /etc/X11/Xsession.d to
/etc/profile.d. Those features are: sourcing ~/.gnomerc, and adding
/usr/share/gnome to XDG_DATA_DIRS. Previously, those features worked
for X11 sessions, but not for Wayland sessions.
For X11 users, this use of /etc/profile.d works for users of gdm,
GNOME's recommended display manager, because /etc/gdm/Xsession sources
/etc/profile. lxdm and sddm appear to have similar code. However,
it will not necessarily work for users of other display managers
such as lightdm and xdm, because /etc/X11/Xsession does not source
/etc/profile; this could cause these features to regress. This means
we should prefer to keep Xsession.d responsible for this feature,
and only rely on /etc/profile.d in the case where Xsession.d is
unsuitable, namely Wayland.
For Wayland users, this relies on gnome-session using a login shell
to relaunch itself when it detects a Wayland session. However,
/etc/profile is only sourced for users whose configured login shell
is bash or ksh, and is not currently sourced for users whose shell is
zsh or a non-Bourne shell like csh. This is not a regression, merely
a new feature that works for users of some shells but not others.
As a side-effect, this also reinstates the conffile that was not
correctly removed in the previous version (Closes: #996809, #996853).

[ Jian-Hong Pan, Gunnar Hjalmarsson ]
* debian/55gnome-session_gnomerc: Make gnomerc work with both X11 and
Wayland.
The original 55gnome-session_gnomerc installed under the path
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/ will only be executed with X11. To make both X11
and Wayland use it, the script can be moved into /etc/profile.d/ and
renamed as gnome-session_gnomerc.sh.
This patch also modifies the way to guard that it is a GNOME
(or GNOME-derived) session by checking the environment variable
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP.
The environment variable XDG_DATA_DIRS is manipulated as usual.
[ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
* debian/patches: Drop patch to select gnome-session mode.
This could have been dropped after 3.34.0-3; gnome-session now
handles both cases without having us to handle it.

[ Didier Roche ]
* debian/55gnome-session_gnomerc:
Protect against multiple additions of the same path.
Do not append the same path to XDG_DATA_DIRS, resulting to duplication
on consecutive logout/logins due to an older session lingering and the
environment being reused. One consequence is that Electron applications
crash (LP: #1764355)
[ Simon McVittie ]
* d/patches: Turn upstream bug reference into a URL
* d/patches: Actively remove undesired variables from activation
environment.
This works around bugs in cinnamon-session and mate-session-manager,
which do not yet have an equivalent of gnome-session's variable_blacklist
and so will upload login-session-specific variables like XDG_SESSION_ID
into `dbus-daemon --session` and, indirectly, `systemd --user`.

gnome-session (3.33.90-1) experimental; urgency=medium
* New upstream release
+ Add support to manage the session using the systemd user instance. A new
systemd_session build time option is added to enable/disable the support
and set it as the default (disable/enable/default). Right now the
support is enabled by default.
- For Debian this means that we are now (in experimental, currently!)
requiring systemd for GNOME sessions.
+ Update session definitions to match new gnome-settings-daemon
+ don't show logout button in fail whale when not logged in
+ handle apps exiting abruptly at log out better
* debian/rules: Disable systemd session support on !linux
* control: Bump gnome-shell/gnome-settings-daemon/gdm requirements.
For the systemd --user support, ensure that people have all the
components involved at 3.33.90.
* Install systemd units into gnome-session-bin. They are needed by
`/usr/bin/gnome-session` itself.
* util-Blacklist-some-session-specific-variables.patch: Take from MR. Don't
