It should use Upstart where available. [Test Case] Install unity8-desktop-session and choose to log in to that session from the LightDM login screen. You should be able to select "log out" from the session-indicator indicator and have it bring you back to the login screen. [Regression Potential] In the worst case this change could affect log out operations from regular Unity 7 sessions and potentially other sessions that use the session indicator. In such a case, the log out operation would fail necessitating a reboot or manual session kill. [Other Info] This change has been in production use on later releases of Ubuntu (14.10 and later) without problems. Later version of the Unity 8 desktop session do not exit to the LightDM login screen but instead restart Unity 8 and present the Unity 8 login screen. This is a bug in Unity 8 and not related to indicator-session.
