[xubuntu-users] XFCE4-session binds on random TCP port (bug)

[Mailing lists]

Hi all,
after upgrade to Xubuntu 24.10 I saw a random TCP port binding on 
0.0.0.0 and the process assigned is xfce4-session

After doing research this option is the for the XFCE4 sessions and 
startup -> Advanced -> Remote something.

On and off did not change the behavior and then I saw this in the log :

~/.xsession-errors :

xfce4-session: Requested to disable tcp connections, but 
_IceTransNoListen is not available on this plattform. Request will be 
ignored.

Checking the config : /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc

setting the --disable-tcp option did not work as well.


Looks like a bug to me.


How can I report it / track it?

Do you face this as well?


Cheers!
