System: NetBSD dropje 8.99.21 NetBSD 8.99.21 (GENERIC) #0: Sat Jul 7 23:05:50 UTC 2018 mkrepro@mkrepro.NetBSD.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC amd64
Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:

Out of the box GDM and Xfce4 both don't install the necessary file to allow
Xfce4 sessions to be started. A xsessions file is missing and ought to be
added to either an xfce4 package or to the gdm package.

>How-To-Repeat:
Freshly install xfce4 and gdm and note that xfce4 is shown but no login is
possible.

>Fix:
Add file installed as /usr/pkg/share/xsessions/xfce4.desktop on either xfce4
or gdm package:
