Public bug reported: Package: ukui-control-center Version: 1.0.3-1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream
liboobs is unmaintained upstream: it was part of GNOME 2, was last released in 2010 and had its most recent upstream git commit in 2012. Because it deals with user login accounts, it is probably also security-sensitive. This seems like a bad combination. (It currently also has a release-critical FTBFS bug which is likely to get ukui-control-center and liboobs removed from testing at some point.) ukui-control-center appears to be one of many forks of GNOME 2 gnome-control-center, using liboobs to create and configure user login accounts. GNOME 3 (gnome-control-center), Cinnamon (cinnamon-control-center), MATE (mate-polkit) and the non-GNOME-related KDE Plasma (user-manager) all depend on accountsservice for similar functionality; ukui-control-center should probably do the same. You can probably find suitable code for this in GNOME 3's gnome-control-center or in Cinnamon's cinnamon-control-center. ** Affects: ubuntukylin Importance: Undecided Assignee: handsome_feng (feng-kylin) Status: New ** Affects: ukui-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: ukui-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** No longer affects: ukui-control-center (Ubuntu) ** Also affects: ukui-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1819597 Title: ukui-control-center: probably shouldn't depend on liboobs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntukylin/+bug/1819597/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
