@Jeremy >Why do you think you need to take those settings out of ubuntu- settings?
1) We can ship all sorts unity specific overrides in unity-settings. It's cleaner that way. 2) We want to ship per-desktop override of ".desktop" (ex: Gnome- software) on "/usr/share/unity/applications". Rather patching each app individually we could do that in unity-settings. That's what ubuntu-mate does in ubuntu-mate-settings. 3) Not every gnome app will work well with unity. If we want to use a alternative we need to override mimeapps list in "/usr/share/applications/unity-mimeapps.list". We can easily do that in unity-settings. 4) The idea is to have a separate ubuntu-unity-amd64.iso. But in the default iso, both autologin and user-session names set to "ubuntu". If we want to change that to "unity", we could do that by shipping a override in "/usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/51-autologin.conf". unity-settings seems proper place to do that. Other option is to carry similar settings in lightdm. 5) In future you may want to demote all unity related components/bits to universe. For that you need to decouple unity-session from gnome-session and a separate unity-settings. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1735998 Title: Decouple unity related settings as unity-settings To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-settings/+bug/1735998/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
