+I tried to reproduce the bug on another account on the same machine, same LXDE environment.
+The bug did not occur again.
+
+> What happens if you run `git-annex assistant --autostart` ?
+
+To answer that, I went back to the first account. Just logging in.
+The following git-related processes are automatically launched without running `git-annex assistant --autostart`.
+
+ git-annex assistant --startdelay=5s
+ git --git-dir=/home/somelogin/Documents/.git --work-tree=/home/somelogin/Documents -c core.bare=false cat-file --batch
+ git --git-dir=/home/somelogin/Documents/.git --work-tree=/home/somelogin/Documents -c core.bare=false cat-file --batch
+ git --git-dir=/home/somelogin/Documents/.git --work-tree=/home/somelogin/Documents -c core.bare=false check-ignore -z --stdin --verbose --non-matching
+ git --git-dir=/home/somelogin/Documents/.git --work-tree=/home/somelogin/Documents -c core.bare=false check-attr -z --stdin annex.backend annex.numcopies --
+
+So, somehow things went back in order by themselves ?
+
+There were quite a bunch of software upgrades from Ubuntu, including `lxsession`. Perhaps something was wrong in handling autostart desktop files ?
+
+Since things appear to work now, should we close the bug ?

+Since this is a little strange, I just looked again at the machine.
+Your software attracts archivist kind of git-annex user, so don't be surprise that I kept logs of the machine.
+
+Short answer: **confirmed it was a LXDE issue, now fixed**.
+
+## From what date has git-annex started to work ?

+ (many other lines...)

+The the machine was used on a regular basis but git-annex assistant was ineffective.
