it is unlikely that this will ever be fixed. you are collateral damage in the commercial war between RedHat and Canonical.
Redhat's weapons are Gnome and systemd. Ubuntu's weapons are Unity and upstart. RH is using gnome to force adoption of systemd as a strategy to sideline ubuntu. BTW, systemd is militantly linux-kernel only, and a dependence on systemd is making gnome linux-only - this screws up gnome usability on non-linux systems, including illumos and derivatives, the *bsd operating systems, and Debian/kfreebsd. This is bad news for free software - even if, like me, you have no interest in running other operating systems the reduction of diversity in the free software ecosystem can only be destructive and harmful. the only solution is to purge gnome from your systems (e.g. switch to lightdm or kdm rather than gdm3). and switch to xfce (or kde or anything other than gnome - it's the only way to avoid being caught up in the RH/Canonical commercial war). craig -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
