[Bug 1644323] Re: Installing unity8-session-snap adversely effects unity7
Hello Pat, or anyone else affected,
Accepted dbus into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/1.10.6-1ubuntu3.2
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.
If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
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
us make a better decision.
Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in
advance!

Installing unity8-session-snap adversely effects unity7

Bug description:
[ Description ]
In Xenial, when dbus-user-session is installed, dbus' upstart job
still starts a new bus. Things get confused about which bus to talk
to.
[ Fix ]
Already fixed in Yakkety. Cherry-pick the upstart job. On top of
Yakkety's version, call `dbus-update-activation-environment --verbose
--systemd GTK_MODULES', because Xenial does not have the change in
upstart to automatically publish to the systemd activation
environment.
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/95dbus_update-activation-env is called too early -
before unity-gtk-module.conf is started - so dbus activated services
miss the GTK_MODULES environment variable. Update unity-gtk-
module.conf to set it in the dbus activation environment.
[ QA ]
Install dbus-user-session, press print screen. It should be delayed if
you are experiencing this bug, and not delayed otherwise.
Remove dbus-user-session, make sure the session still works properly -
the global menu works, everything launches properly, etc.
Test that gnome-terminal has global menus in both situations.
[ Regression potential ]
This change alters the way that the session bus is launched, even if
you aren't using dbus-user-session. Even though this same change is
deployed in ≥ yakkety, be aware of this. In yakkety we have installed
dbus-user-session by default, so the case where you don't have it
isn't as well tested. I would suggest focusing some testing on the non
dbus-user-session case.
[ Original report ]
After installing the deb (and then the snap), certain things in the
unity7 session take a very long time (30 to 60 secs), such as
launching chromium and ctrl-alt-t for a new terminal session.
Removing both the deb and the snap followed by a reboot does not fix
the symptoms.
