[Bug 1668722] Re: 60x11-common_xdg_path uses $DESKTOP_SESSION which needs a sanity check

[Simon Quigley]

So it seems that the problem is not that xorg doesn't set
DESKTOP_SESSION correctly, it's that SDDM uses an absolute path for this
instead of just the base name like every other window manager.

I'll fix it in Ubuntu; meanwhile, a bug is filed upstream. Linked here.
