IMHO this really sounds like you want to start unity8 with with testability enabled so that autopilot can connect to unity8 and get all the things it needs from there...
Exporting those internals additionally on a d-bus interface that would be just used for testing seems a) redundant and b) short-sighted to me. I worry that after this autopilot would need more and more on this interface, while starting it with testability enabled would give you everything at once, just like it is intended for testing. ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: qtmir (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: canonical-devices-system-image Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1630340 Title: Need DBus API to get screen orientation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1630340/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
