[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1607663] Re: vino-server does not autostart on Ubuntu-GNOME
This bug was fixed in the package vino - 3.8.1-0ubuntu9.2 --- vino (3.8.1-0ubuntu9.2) xenial; urgency=medium * Add debian/links to symlink the hidden vino autostart .desktop to /usr/share/applications/ which is needed for the Desktop Sharing feature in GNOME's Settings app to work.
