** Description changed: Porting compiz and so unity to gsettings has a lot of consequences: - compiz: * remove the conffile for 2nd (autologin) fallback mechanism * build with gsettings support * add migration scripts * add xml files for the g-c-c integration (we used the metacity ones before) - unity : * gconf -> gsettings patches (2) * rebuild with the new gsettings compiz * add transitional packages for all unity-2d packages * add migration scripts - nux: * remove the X11 Xsession.d detection script - 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 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. --------------- WHAT IS REMAINING: ubuntu-release-upgrade -> we will deal that with mvo later on. all above components that are fix commited (apart unity): - bzr pull the vcs, release and dput it - metacity to sync with debian Unity: Take lp:~didrocks/unity/gsettings-transition as the packaging branch - build with latest compiz, check compiz version for build-dep (already bumped, but check if not shipped in a new tarball) - - activate the gsettings switch in debian/rules. ensure that the schemas are installed in the same package that the gconf keys were. Remove the gconf keys install. + - (activate the gsettings switch in debian/rules <- is enabled by default) ensure that the schemas are installed in the same package that the gconf keys were. Remove the gconf keys install. - check that I ship correctly the .convert script and bump if needed the dep from unityc-ommon to compiz-gnome (already bumped, but check if not shipped in a new tarball) - Compiz: take lp:~didrocks/compiz/gsettings-transition as the packaging branch - rev 3298 introduced the migration script - - merge all the gsettings branch (create a new snapshot tarball?), ensure they have the xml for g-c-c ones as well. The g-c-c xml files should be installed and handled by the packaging already in usr/share/gnome-control-center/keybindings. - - activate the gsettings switch in debian/rules. ensure that the schemas are installed in the same packages that the gconf keys were. Remove the gconf keys install. - - check that my changes ship the transition script use debian/compiz-gnome.migrations and the convert files. + Compiz: packaging branches lp:~didrocks/compiz/gsettings-transition / lp:~timo-jyrinki/compiz/ubuntu_quantal + - merge all the gsettings branches to lp:compiz (create a new snapshot tarball?), ensure they have the xml for g-c-c ones as well. The g-c-c xml files should be installed and handled by the packaging already in usr/share/gnome-control-center/keybindings. + - Remove the gconf keys install. MISC: - branch for gsettings compiz g-c-c integration: lp:~compiz-team/compiz/compiz.gnome-control-center-integration - branch for gsettings unity g-c-c integration: lp: - - Mirv has some updates .convert files for compiz for the g-c-c keys. + - Mirv has some updates .convert files for compiz for the g-c-c keys. lp:~timo-jyrinki/compiz/metacity-key-migrations Both should be merged. - lp:~didrocks/unity/gsettings-transition already contains the backport for removing gconf and the .convert unity files. (ber merge) TESTING THE MIGRATION: 1. have the old g-c-c, change unity values in it (launcher size, hide mode…), change keybindings (a lot of them in different categories, launcher, navigation… like changing workspace keys) 2. install new g-c-c (lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-control-center/ubuntu), compiz, unity with all the settings migration 3. logout/login 4. check that the keys are transitionned to the new system: launcher size/hide mode are the changed values and corresponds and the values are shown in the new g-c-c. Same thing with the changed keybidings.
