Public bug reported: In jaunty gnome-session 2.25.3-0ubuntu1 contains a patch to change the gconf-key "/desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager" from "metacity" to "gnome-wm". gnome-wm however is lacking a .desktop file which seems to be required by the new gnome-session for these components. This results in the following error message: gnome-session[9933]: WARNING: Unable to find provider 'gnome-wm' of required component 'windowmanager'
Also the patch is applied to /usr/share/gconf/defaults/10_gnome-session but /usr/share/gconf/schemas/gnome-session.schemas still contains: <default>metacity</default> This can be a little bit confusing if you unset the according key in gconf-editor, then it shows "metacity" but if you start gconf-editor again it shows "gnome-wm". However I'm not sure if this is a bug in that patch or if it is correct and the bug is in gconf. ** Affects: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gnome-wm is missing a .desktop file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316958 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
