[Bug 1296814] Re: When Unity.Session is available, use its API for logging out

 

So when the user has prompting disabled, indicator-session can use the
Unity API directly, and there's an attached MP for this.

In the default case where prompting is turned on, it looks like
UnityCore/GnomeSessionManager.cpp's implementation of
org.gnome.SessionManager.EndSessionDialog handles the logout signals on
its own instead of returning control to indicator-session. It seems
likely that once Unity has control it's irrelevant whether the logout
signal emitted is Gnome or Unity, but am adding Treviño here for a
sanity check to confirm...

Title:
  When Unity.Session is available, use its API for logging out

Status in The Session Menu:
  New
Status in Unity:
  New
Status in “unity8-desktop-session” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The session indicator always uses gnome-session to end the session
  (log out), but gnome-session is not guaranteed to be available under,
  for example, a Unity8 desktop preview session.  It should use Upstart
  where available.
