** Description changed:
Porting compiz and so unity to gsettings has a lot of consequences:
- compiz:
- * build with gsettings support
- * add migration scripts
+ * build with gsettings support
+ * add migration scripts
- unity :
- * gconf -> gsettings patches (2)
- * rebuild with the new gsettings compiz
- * add transitional packages for all unity-2d packages
- * add migration scripts
+ * gconf -> gsettings patches (2)
+ * rebuild with the new gsettings compiz
+ * add transitional packages for all unity-2d packages
+ * add migration scripts
- gnome-control-center:
* should be ported in both the keyboard part by reverting the gsettings
revert patch
* in the unity background configuration panels to support gsettings
* in the display configuration panels to support gsettings
- gnome-settings-daemon to drop the gsettings revert patch:
- metacity should be updated to >> 2.34.2 (gsettings integration, shared with
compiz). Sync back with debian, demote to universe -> this forces us to drop a
lot of patches to make unity-2d running
- consequently, dropping unity-2d because of metacity patches won't be
ported, and unity-2d isn't maintained to port from gconf to gsettings:. Removal
from the archive
- lightdm to transition people from unity-2d to unity-3d session
- unity-greeter to drop hardware detection capability for nux
- - gnome-session to drop the unity-2d session
+ - gnome-session to drop the unity-2d session and recommends
- release-upgrader in precise to detect if the card can't run unity-3d, and
if so, show a warning to tell to stay on the LTS
+ - ubuntu-desktop seed to remove dep on unity-2d
People forcing the upgrade or installing on a machine without hardware
acceleration will then use unity with llvmpipe.
