It could happen that IceLockAuthFile leaves lock files in inconsistent state, then making impossible to login again. Even after a reboot. I expect the ICE auth files to be stored somewhere that is not preserved through sessions
Created attachment 139408 [details] [review] authutil: save IceAuthFile on XDG_RUNTIME_DIR if set This is something that should be per user session and not preserved. In this way we also fix deadlocks on IceLockAuthFile when the -c and -l files have already been saved and not deleted (with a full logout/login, at least).
