The decision has been made to use the new upstream version during the cycle because other desktop component started using the new gnome- session dbus api and gnome-session needed to be upgrade to upgrade those. The issue have been discussion with people working on the upstream rewrite and were on the list of things to work on for GNOME 2.24. The changes have slowed down when one of the people working on the new code changed job and had been busy with other things. Now the ubuntu team doesn't have extra ressources to put on writting this upstream code and downgrading is not really an option so the bug is basically blocker on something to step up and do the work there or in the GNOME community -- gnome session does not restore the previous session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
