But then all X11-supporting display managers would have to care about it.
According to answers in
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/196677/what-is-tmp-x11-unix
/tmp/.X11-unix/ is the directory where any X11 server will create the
unix domain socket X0.
One answer implies that is not necessarily the only way an X11 server
may communicate with clients on the same machine.
`/gnu/store: grep -iRs X11-unix` only showed results caused by my own
simple-service, matches in binary files and a comment in a
slim-sigusr1.patch:
"The problem was that SLiM doesn't pay attention to SIGUSR1. So in
practice, if X starts slowly, then SLiM gets ECONNREFUSED a couple of
time on /tmp/.X11-unix/X0, then goes on trying to connect to
localhost:6000, where nobody answers; eventually, it times out and tries
again on /tmp/.X11-unix/X0, and finally it shows up on the screen."
I would think that something must already take care of /tmp/.X11-unix/
for an operating-system configuration using plain X11?
