Public bug reported: We expose the Greeter DBus API (whether we're active, which user is selected, etc) on the root / DBus path. This can easily conflict with other potential APIs (which are similarly rude as us to claim such a path).
We should switch away from it. Potential clients right now: - indicators - test tools - adb - telephony stack While switching, it may be wise to move to some more standard APIs as well, like using logind's LockedHint instead of IsActive. ** Affects: unity8 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Michael Terry (mterry) Status: New ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Michael Terry (mterry) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1599163 Title: Move unity8's greeter off the "/" DBus path Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: We expose the Greeter DBus API (whether we're active, which user is selected, etc) on the root / DBus path.
