enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update

mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  If the screen is locked, launcher/panel edge barriers at the moment
  are active.

  [Test Case]

  In a multi-monitor environment, lock the screen and move the mouse
  between monitors.  There should be no "sticky" edge between the
  monitors.

  [Regression Potential]

  Code in the paths that handle the edge barriers was changed.
  Potentially this could impact the reveal of a hidden Launcher if there
  were errors introduced in these code paths.

  [Other Info]

  The fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry picked from the Ubuntu "Vivid
  Vervet" dev release where it has been in production use for some time.
