Yes, I think this is a legitimate problem right there. Thank you for
pointing that out.
You need to have run "xpra start" at least once in the lifetime of the
target user account.
Sorry about that, we will fix that.

Does swearing on a mailing list usually help?
You will find that most exceptions are documented on the FAQ, and
generally caused by packaging issues.
If you find some that are not, we'll make sure to fix them.

Even with:
xpra start :10 --start-child=xterm
xpra attach
?

You seem to have been quite frustrated by this experience, I'm sorry
about that.
Next time, please get some help here or on IRC, and also check the FAQ.
