I know we want Unity8 to respawn on occasional/rare crashes. But we need a different plan for immediate start-up crashes... For those you need to soon fall back to something else that will at least display a picture (USC I guess).
Obeying a respawn limit of 10 or so would be a nice compromise I think. -- 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/1578469 Title: Crashes in unity8 cause infinite restarts and/or a permanently black screen Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Crashes in unity8 cause infinite restarts and/or a permanently black screen.
