I think the problem is that Unity doesn't have
Provides: x-session-manager
and thus it breaks the update-alternatives system concept.
$ apt-cache show gnome-session | grep Provides
Provides: gnome3-session, x-session-manager
$ sudo update-alternatives --config x-session-manager
There are 2 choices for the alternative x-session-manager (providing
/usr/bin/x-session-manager).
Selection Path Προτε Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 /usr/bin/gnome-session 50 auto mode
1 /usr/bin/gnome-session 50 manual mode
2 /usr/bin/openbox-session 40 manual mode
No Unity session there. No, gnome-session isn't enough, since Ubuntu provides a
completely different shell than upstream Gnome, it should list it as a separate
session.
