* debian/gdm-autologin.pam: Same changes as in debian/gdm.pam; this file was overlooked in the fix of LP: #952185 in version 3.6.1-0ubuntu3. -- Gunnar Hjalmarsson <gunna...@ubuntu.com> Mon, 11 Mar 2013 23:26:00 -0700 ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952185 Title: ~/.pam_environment not parsed by default Status in Light Display Manager: Invalid Status in “at” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “openssh” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “pam” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “sudo” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “at” source package in Precise: Won't Fix Status in “gdm” source package in Precise: In Progress Status in “lightdm” source package in Precise: In Progress Status in “openssh” source package in Precise: Triaged Status in “pam” source package in Precise: Invalid Status in “sudo” source package in Precise: Invalid Bug description: lightdm precise and gdm precise SRU proposals --------------------------------------------- [Impact] As was originally stated in the bug summary, ~/.pam_environment is not read at login if $HOME is encrypted. The lightdm (Precise) and gdm (Precise) SRUs fix that issue. [Test Case] Steps to reproduce: * As a user with an ecryptfs protected $HOME, use language-selector to make the user language and/or user regional formats differ from the system wide settings (i.e. ~/.pam_environment != /etc/default/locale). * Log out and log in again. Run the locale command from a terminal window, and you'll find that the output is a result of /etc/default/locale, i.e. ~/.pam_environment was ignored. [Regression Potential] Low. Previous description -------------------- PAM needs to be told explicitly by respective service to parse ~/.pam_environment, since the fix of http://bugs.debian.org/611136 is about to make it into Raring. Please see comment #29 and #30. Otherwise the session environment will contain the system wide locale settings, while the user's locale settings are ignored.
