SRU Verification for Lucid The version 0.87.2-1ubuntu0.1 in -proposed doesn't fix the issue. This is because the file sugar.desktop included in the package is the one in data/sugar.desktop and not debian/sugar.desktop. It is installed by the rule install-xsessionsDATA in data/Makefile.in. Please resubmit once a fix is available. Thanks in advance.
I'm marking as verification-failed. ** Tags added: verification-failed ** Tags removed: verification-needed -- GDM crashes when Sugar session is selected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/542338 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Sugar Team, which is subscribed to sugar-0.88 in ubuntu. Status in “sugar-0.88” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “sugar-0.88” source package in Lucid: Fix Committed Status in “sugar-0.88” package in Debian: Fix Committed Bug description: *** START SRU INFO *** This package causes GDM to crash as-is. The fix is to add a comment to the .desktop file. This is not fixed in Maverick, but the fix has been well-tested and will be included in the next Debian version of the package. slangasek on IRC said he didn't see a problem with uploading this without fixing it in Maverick first. ** TEST CASE ** Install sugar-0.88. Switch to GDM. Select a user, and select "Sugar" as the session. OLD BEHAVIOR: GDM should crash, disappearing from the screen. NEW BEHAVIOR: The option is selected. *** END SRU INFO *** I installed Sugar, and the session is properly listed as an option from GDM, but as soon as I select that session with the combo box GDM immediately crashes. This does not happen for any other sessions and occurs all the time for me. I poked through the system log and the following stood out: Mar 19 17:30:45 dylan-netbook gdm-session-worker[1439]: GLib-GObject-CRITICAL: g_value_get_boolean: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_BOOLEAN (value)' failed Mar 19 17:30:49 dylan-netbook gdm-simple-slave[933]: CRITICAL: Cannot read specified session file: sugar.desktop Mar 19 17:30:49 dylan-netbook gdm-binary[767]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0.112974 seconds Mar 19 17:30:49 dylan-netbook gdm-simple-greeter[1477]: WARNING: error opening connection: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/gdm-greeter-CveyZvQE: Connection refused The fact that GDM is crashing is being filed as a separate bug.
