Hi Jeremy, Sorry, I should have rebooted first. The settings link is there and it works.

Matthew, yes, the missing Settings link was basically an Ubuntu packaging bug and is fixed with https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/42~beta-1ubuntu2 I believe you would need to log out and log back in after installing that update. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964136 Title: Settings item not shown in System menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1964136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1964136] Re: Settings item not shown in System menu
Just to clarify, we will be adding the option to launch gnome-control- center from the system menu? I keep finding myself trying to launch it from there to check sound settings before meetings, but it is missing, and have to launch from overview instead. I think this is a feature that LTS users will want. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964136 Title: Settings item not shown in System menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1964136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

IMHO we should still expose the new desktop file as NoDisplay, just to be sure that applications that will target GNOME 42 will be able to open settings. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964136 Title: Settings item not shown in System menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1964136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1964136] Re: Settings item not shown in System menu
You're right. We need both codesearch lists. I believe updating the distro packages is doable for Jammy but I am willing to wait for 22.10 if you don't think it's a good idea now. For our LTS users as long as they're using distro packages, it shouldn't make a difference which way we go. I think it may be slightly better for the few third-party app developers that call gnome-control-center to use the new name since they can use the new name and not worry about the old name as long as they don't care about old distro versions. I couldn't find any Snap packages that successfully call gnome-control- center. I'm curious to see how that would break. Maybe if we do the rename we can add a compatibility hidden .desktop. I've never done the compatibility D-Bus thing before but I think something in GNOME did it a few years ago. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964136 Title: Settings item not shown in System menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1964136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

> Here's a better list of affected packages Could you provide details on why you think it's a better list? The patch renames the dbus entry point, which means that applications trying to spawn setting over dbus will need to be update. As a testcase build gnome-control-center with the suggested patch, then try to open online accounts from the gnome-calendar popdown menu, it doesn't work anymore. The codesearch query first mentioned suggests that gnome-photos, contacts, todo, recipes, boxes, music and others are going to have the same issue? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964136 Title: Settings item not shown in System menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1964136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Jeremy, I'm unsure to understand your point, what do you suggest doing exactly? The shell revert seems the safest way there, unless you want to provide compat with different names but what is the win for the LTS users exactly? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964136 Title: Settings item not shown in System menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1964136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1964136] Re: Settings item not shown in System menu
Here's a better list of affected packages: https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=gnome-control-center.desktop=1 The network-manager plugins are for AppStream metadata and it's pretty easy to support both names there. budgie-control-center can be ignored since it's just a fork of gnome- control-center. So it looks like only gnome-shell needs to be fixed for 22.04 LTS if we keep the old name. And it's about a dozen packages that will need small patches (or upstream fixes) in 22.10 then. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964136 Title: Settings item not shown in System menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1964136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

-1 on doing the rename before the LTS, we are past feature freeze, a check on the old name shows quite some reverse depends call to the name to trigger the settings https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=org.gnome.ControlCenter We could start patching the rdepends but that's not useful work, we are just going to spend some days of work going back to the state we currently are in, also we could have third party code broke due to it, that's the kind of change we should do after a LTS and not just before. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964136 Title: Settings item not shown in System menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1964136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

gnome-control-center 42 changed its .desktop name. We either need to backport that change to Jammy or revert gnome-shell 42's change.
