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: Packaging branches lp:~didrocks/unity/gsettings-transition -> continued at lp:~timo-jyrinki/unity/gsettings-transition2 - build with latest compiz, check compiz version for build-dep (already bumped, but check if not shipped in a new tarball) - 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: packaging branches lp:~timo-jyrinki/compiz/ubuntu_quantal_trunk (against trunk) -> pushed to lp:ubuntu/compiz now / lp:~timo-jyrinki/compiz/ubuntu_quantal (merged in all the branches not yet in trunk, and additional changes) - merge all the gsettings branches to lp:compiz MISC: - PPA including all of above: https://launchpad.net/~timo-jyrinki/+archive/prerelease 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.
