Public bug reported:
Initially I was going to report this against a completely working 16.04
VM using spice. In that case the system, once rebooted after the upgrade
failed to show launcher at all and no desktop applications could be
moved. This is new behavior in 16.04.1. All these things worked in
16.04.
To have a clean slate I created a brand new VM with the brand new
16.04.1 iso. It came up using spice just fine, as the default for the
launcher is autohide off. As I prefer the full desktop I turned autohide
to on and voilà.
Should you need further details, let me know. I use VMs to test new
systems before I upgrade my production 14.04 system to 16.04. As it is
an desktop existing system I am awaiting the software-updater prompt.
