ap/alsa-utils-1.0.23-x86_64-2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Patched alsaconf to generate /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf.
  Thanks to Alan Hicks.
kde/kdebase-workspace-4.4.3-x86_64-2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Patched xinitrc.kde to launch with ck-launch-session only if the
  DESKTOP_SESSION variable is empty.  This fixes a bug where a ck-aware
  login manager such as KDM may have already launched a ConsoleKit
  session, causing the xinitrc to launch another one and marking the
  first one inactive.  This can lead to auth failures.
  Thanks to Robby Workman.

xap/xfce-4.6.1-x86_64-9.txz:  Rebuilt.

  DESKTOP_SESSION variable is empty.  Thanks to Robby Workman.
