Title:
lightdm needs to set $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP
Status in Light Display Manager:
Fix Released
Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Since the switch to upstart, some processes in the user environment,
such as gnome-screensaver, now get launched without
$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP being set. This is currently causing screen
locking issues.
This used to get set by gnome-session, but it is no longer high enough
in the process tree to set it for the complete user session.
Consensus in #ubuntu-desktop was that lightdm should be setting it.
