Prospective patch for this issue in gdm/lightdm upstart jobs:
post-stop script
case $UPSTART_EVENTS in
*runlevel*)
initctl emit desktop-shutdown
;;
esac
end script
And after more thought, I see we only need a one-way breaks: from
plymouth to the old versions of the DM packages, when plymouth drops the
check for the 'stopped $dm' events. So anyone who wants to implement
this post-stop script in their own package can go ahead and do so, and
we can fix up plymouth afterwards.
** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu Oneiric)
Milestone: None => ubuntu-11.10
** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu Oneiric)
Milestone: None => ubuntu-11.10
** Changed in: plymouth (Ubuntu Oneiric)
