** Description changed: + [ Impact ] + + Using `gdctl show` in a machine without backlights control may crash + + [ Test case ] + + In a machine where the monitor has no software backlight control, run: + + $ gdctl show + + The command should show the current monitor(s) configuration without + throwing any python error (e.g. TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable + NoneType object). + + In a machine where the monitor has software backlight control, do the + same and again no error should be triggered. + + [ Regression potential ] + + The backlight information may not be shown in machines that have it, but + that is not properly exposed by the DBus API. + + --- + + The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding mutter.
