This is the full list of API changes for gnome-desktop, keep in mind that most of these were moved into display-config (and/or made redundant by those changes). There are no rdepends in the archive that use any of these (apart from g-s-d/g-c-c and u-s-d/u-c-c which already have patches prepared on this FFe)

This however requires a transition to gnome- desktop 3-10. I have been working on this for quite some time however this work was essentially blocked waiting on the unity- forks for settings daemon and control center. These were only finalised the day before feature freeze. Right now there are quite a few features that are not available for configuration in g-c-c given it is so old. We are also hitting some odd bugs with mutter using its own display config separate to what gnome-settings-daemon is doing with xrandr. For GNOME 3.10, all the display configuration/xrandr code has been moved into Mutter as dbus interface. The Main reason for this move was to abstract away the display server (x11/wayland). Apart from these changes there were no significant changes in the API. This affects gnome-desktop3 and gnome-settings-daemon. In particular the changes in gnome-desktop would create a gigantic mess if we tried to revert these changes for Unity only. As such have forked the display config code from mutter and ported *-settings-daemon and *-control-center to the new api. The code itself is fairly self contained, so apart from the resulting duplication of code, it shouldnt really be much of an issue. We have tested this via a ppa, however it was hard to get extensive testing, due to the amount of archive churn in the affected packages. I am pretty confident there are no much regressions and I will commit to fixing any issues to do appear. Essentially this transition will involve: new displayconfig package: This is the relevant code forked from mutter 3.10.4 (with a couple of fixes from 3.11 backported), wrapped up in a daemon. This gets autostarted when required by g/u-s-d (although dbus activation may be broken in flashback session) my upstream branch is at https://github.com/darkxst/displayconfig (I had trouble working out how to import a git branch into bzr, but I imagine it should live in bzr once approved) gnome/unity-settings-daemon, have backported patches to adapt to the new API. Likewise for gnome/unity-control-center. All other rdepends just require a no-change rebuild to adapt to the new soname. Assuming this gets a approved, subsequent FFe's for gnome-settings- daemon and gnome-control-center 3.10 will follow.
