[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1607663] Re: vino-server does not autostart on Ubuntu-GNOME

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

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. Thanks Florian Apolloner for the bug
report and suggested fix. (LP: #1607663)

  Impact
  ==
  The Desktop Sharing option in GNOME's Settings apps silently doesn't work.

  Test Case
  =
  On the host computer:
  1. In Ubuntu GNOME, open the Settings app.
  2. Open the Sharing panel.
  3. In the headerbar, turn on Sharing.
  4. Click Screen Sharing. Turn it On. (If it was already On, turn it off then 
On.)

  On the guest computer:
  5. From a different computer connected to the same local network, attempt to 
connect to the host computer.

  For this, you can install Vinagre. Click Connect. Use Protocol: VNC
  and enter the IP address for the test computer in the Host: field.
  Click Connect.

  On the host computer:
  6. You probably need to approve a popup message to allow the remote user to 
connect.

  Regression Potential
  
  This only adds a symlinked NoDisplay=true .desktop to
  /usr/share/applications/

  Other Info
  ==
  The fix for Ubuntu 16.10 is a bit different. There we can just backport the 
systemd service file added to vino 3.22 since gnome-settings-daemon 3.22 
handles sharing services via systemd user services.

  I verified that the extra .service file does not affect the way vino-
  preferences works in Unity 16.10. It's just ignored and manually
  trying to start the service in Unity doesn't work either which is
  fine. For 17.04+ we should look at having Unity use the systemd user
  service too.

  Original Bug Report with Workaround
  ===
  Running gnome-settings-daemon -r --debug shows that it tries to locate 
vino-server.desktop which it cannot find and therefore fails to start. Looking 
at the debian package, a confirmed and working fix for Ubuntu 16.04 is: sudo ln 
-s /etc/xdg/autostart/vino-server.desktop 
/usr/share/applications/vino-server.desktop or only shipping that file in 
/usr/share/application

[Florian Apolloner]

Sadly no, we switched to Unity for new deployments due to other issues.
I currently do not run Gnome anymore on Ubuntu 16.04 :( But from looking
at the diff, the patch should be okay -- when I tried it I actually
symlinked it to see if it actually fixes it.

Hello Florian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted vino into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vino/3.8.1-0ubuntu9.2
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

  The fix for Ubuntu 16.10 is a bit different. There we can just backport the 
systemd service file added to vino 3.22 since gnome-settings-daemon 3.22 
handles sharing services via systemd user services.

  I verified that the extra .service file does not affect the way vino-
  preferences works in Unity 16.10. It's just ignored and manually
  trying to start the service in Unity doesn't work either which is
  fine. For 17.04+ we should look at having Unity use the systemd user
  service too.

  Original Bug Report with Workaround
  ===
  Running gnome-settings-daemon -r --debug shows that it tries to locate 
vino-server.desktop which it cannot find and therefore fails to start. Looking 
at the debian package, a confirmed and working fix for Ubuntu 16.04 is: sudo ln 
-s /etc/xdg/autostart/vino-server.desktop 
/usr/share/applications/vino-server.desktop or only shipping that file in 
/usr/share/application
