While this is the main user visible bug probably other bugs caused by this for example (BGO: #745707) The cause was tracked down to gnome-session not shutting down cleanly under upstart. Although the underlying issue seems to be the order in which upstart takes down the various components in a user session, the side-effects themselves appear to be caused by gnome-session continuing to run when it should in fact be shutdown The fix updates the 103_kill_the_fail_whale.patch to force shutdown of gnome-session. This is inline with the fix upstream for (BGO: #745707) also. [ Test Case ] Note: This is only reproducible under upstart init. 1. Load gdm 2. Login to gnome-shell using GNOME from the session list 3. enable some extensions 4. reboot system from user menu. 5. login again to find extensions disabled. [ Regression Potential ] Very low, the fail whale is meant to be fatal. The upstream dialog that is disabled in ubuntu does in fact cause gnome-session to get shutdown.
