Ok, I see how you need a unity-settings binary package for #4. But I still don't see why you need to remove gsettings overrides from ubuntu- settings. And I think almost all customizations except #4 could go in the ubuntu-settings package.
A benefit is that users coming from Ubuntu (or other flavors that depend on ubuntu-settings) will already have ubuntu-settings installed without needing to have unity itself depend on ubuntu-settings or unity- settings. For this reason, we might even drop the vanilla-gnome-default- settings package once someone gets around to merging its settings in to ubuntu-settings. I encourage other Ubuntu flavors to consider doing that too. You could even build the unity-settings binary package from the ubuntu- settings source. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1735998 Title: Decouple unity related settings as unity-settings Status in ubuntu-settings package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This is an attempt to resolve "* Shared GSettings keys" issue listed under https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/NotDefaultIssues. Ubuntu so far is providing session related overrides for both ubuntu & unity sessions in a single package, i.e. ubuntu-settings. But now that Unity is not the default desktop it doesn't make any sense to carry unity related overrides in ubuntu-settings. For this purpose I have created a new project: unity-settings (https://code.launchpad.net/~khurshid-alam/unity-settings/trunk) and the binary would be unity-settings in universe. To make this happen in under 18.04 cycle, the work-flow should be: 1) Have unity-settings in the universe 2) Have ubuntu-unity-desktop in the universe 3) Let ubuntu-unity-desktop depends on unity-settings 4) Drop unity related settings in ubuntu-settings (merge request in-progress) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-settings/+bug/1735998/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
