Title:
Allow safe override of GDM3 theme
Status in GNOME Shell:
Won't Fix
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Currently, in artful, GDM3's theme is hardcoded to be /usr/share
/gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css
In the Ubuntu default session, this is the same CSS file as the gnome-
shell mode in /usr/share/gnome-shell/modes/ubuntu.json
However, in other flavors, it makes sense to install another mode json
and theme css file with a clear name. Take, for instance, pop-session,
that installs /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/pop.css and /usr/share
/gnome-shell/modes/pop.json
In order to supply a custom GDM3 theme, which is currently hardcoded,
the ubuntu.css file must be replaced with this pop.css file. This
breaks ubuntu-session, causing it to have a different shell theme than
expected.
What would be desirable is for the GDM3 CSS file to be hardcoded to
gdm.css, which would be a symlink to the correct stylesheet for the
flavor. This would allow multiple GNOME Shell sessions to be installed
at the same time.
