I've recently build unity-contol-center on my own to test a patch that adds option for always showing the global menu (it also needs patched Unity).
https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/682788 (that patches are attached here) When I tried to install those packages there was one conflict with gnome-control-center-unity package so I removed it and installed u-c-c without removing other gnome-control-center packages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to webaccounts-browser-extension in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1257505 Title: Create Unity Control Center so can remain on old GNOME Control Center version Status in “activity-log-manager” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “deja-dup” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “eog” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gnome-color-manager” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gnome-control-center-signon” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gnome-media” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gthumb” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “indicator-bluetooth” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “indicator-power” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “indicator-session” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “indicator-sound” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “landscape-client” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “ubuntuone-control-panel” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “unity-control-center” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “webaccounts-browser-extension” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Ubuntu/Unity uses GNOME Control Center as the application to configure the Unity session. We've made a lot of changes appropriate for Ubuntu and Unity (61 patches) which makes it hard to maintain and creates a conflict for Ubuntu GNOME to use the control center. Unity 7 will be replaced by Unity 8 in the future which has a new settings interface. So we can continue to remain on the current version of GNOME Control Center but allow Ubuntu GNOME to continue to update we will create a new project lp:unity-control-center which is a copy of GNOME Control Center 3.6 but with appropriate renaming so both can be installed. A number of packages that refer to gnome-control-center need to be updated to refer to unity-control-center (see bug tasks).
