Title:
Turn on background plugin by default (Ubuntu 18.10)
Status in ubuntu-settings package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-
settings/tree/debian/ubuntu-settings.gsettings-override#n139
we have,
[org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.background:ubuntu]
active = false
which disables the plugin. Gnome-settings-daemon doesn't use that key
anymore (They are auto started by desktop files), But unity-settings-
daemon now requires it to be enabled by default due to recent changes
in lightdm and u-s-d
Lightdm now use AccountsService extension system for extended greeter
information (like wallpaper) used by unity-greeter
(https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/lightdm/commit/6015bce25f241e7580c03594d846769f8236232f)
And unity-settings-daemon now depends on new AccountsService method of
setting background file for unity greeter.
(https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-settings-daemon-team/unity-
settings-daemon/trunk/revision/4179)
How-to-reproduce:
------------------
1) First disable the background plugin if it is already enabled.
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.sharing active
false
2) Change the wallpaper from unity-control-center.
3) Log out.
Unity-greeter should reflect the change of wallpaper.
But it doesn't.
4) Re-enable the background plugin.
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.sharing active
true
5) Change the wallpaper again and then log out.
Unity-greeter now reflects the change in wallpaper properly.
