.xsession-errors file constantly keeps growing

Hello!
I noticed that when I restart my computer the .xsession-errors file constantly keeps growing. From a few kilobytes to a few megabytes. Here is the output of the file:

xfce4-session: No SSH authentication agent found

What could the cause of the errors be?
Thank you very much!

So I found https://bbs.archlinux.de/viewtopic.php?id=30441 and this https://bbs.archlinux.de/viewtopic.php?id=29733 but I do not know german. Can someone help me with the solution?

The posts refer to a broken xinitrc -> how do you start X11?

So I found the solution but I do not know how to apply it. If someone can help me? The solution is described here:
Fixed in: https://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/diff/t … 762e97b192
Reported in: https://www.mail-archive.com/xfce-bugs@ … 05228.html
How can I apply the patch? Thank you very much!

This is only part of the xsession-error messages you posted, but well...
To apply the patch, you'll have to build the thunar package yourself and apply the patch.

Either install and use asp or download the files from https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/pack … ges/thunar as well as your patch and run a local makepkg / pacman -U <package>.tar.xz
See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg

Ultimately you can just wait until the patched version is released and hits the repos.

edit: isn't ABS deprecated and dead?
