@khurshid 4) The idea is to have a separate ubuntu-unity-amd64.iso. But in the default iso, both autologin and user-session names set to "ubuntu". If we want to change that to "unity", we could do that by shipping a override in "/usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/51-autologin.conf". unity-settings seems proper place to do that. Other option is to carry similar settings in lightdm.
Khurshid, I like this idea and I appreciate all the help jbicha is giving you but with our current manpower resources we may have to settle for a flattened and leaner unity7. I don't expect you to do all of this work by yourself. It has been my contention that we try an use any and all of the gnome components that we can, however, I trust your direction on this. I will try and recruit more help. -- 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
