[Bug 854329] Re: race condition on shutdown with more than one DM installed

 

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)
    Milestone: None => ubuntu-11.10
