Package: gnome-session
Version: 2.26.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Currently, gnome-session launches the window manager specified by
/desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager, which defaults
to metacity. This means that changing the window manager launched by
gnome-session requires setting that gconf key. That gconf key can only
have one value, making it difficult to implement logic like "Launch my
preferred window manager if available, but fall back to metacity if
not."
gnome-session ships a script, gnome-wm, specifically designed to find
and exec an appropriate window manager, defaulting to metacity. This
script supports setting the WINDOW_MANAGER environment variable, which
..xsession could then set based on the availability of different window
managers.
Please consider setting the default for
/desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager to gnome-wm.
Users could still override this setting themselves to set the window
manager, or they could set the WINDOW_MANAGER environment variable.
Note that this will also require installing the gnome-wm .desktop file
to /usr/share/applications, which the gnome-session package does not
currently do.

*sigh*
gnome-session (2.26.1-5) unstable; urgency=low
.
* 01_gnome-wm.patch:
+ Actually install gnome-wm.desktop, it’s pretty useless otherwise.
+ Don’t read the GConf key, it’s obviously set to gnome-wm if we’re
starting gnome-wm.
+ Make compiz the default if compiz-gtk is installed.
+ Remove a few unneeded things from the script to make it start
faster.
* gconf-defaults: make gnome-wm the default window manager.
