** Summary changed: - Add user manager dbus interface to gdmserver + FFE: Add user manager dbus interface to gdmserver
** Description changed: Binary package hint: gdm There are multiple services that access the list of users able to log in: 1. The GDM greeter 2. The GDM configuration applet 3. The user switch applet This list can take some time to generate and has duplicated code in all of these services. Make this list collected once in the gdmserver and these services should access it via dbus+polkit. + + --- + + Feature Freeze exception request: This provides a new API to read user + information from gdm (no modification of any data), and is requested by + the DX team to get back some features which got dropped with the move of + the old gdm/fusa to the new gdm/indicator-session. + + At the moment, gdm itself does not need it, so the risk for breaking + existing functionality is low. -- FFE: Add user manager dbus interface to gdmserver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/423450 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
