lightdm 0.9.2-0ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

lightdm (0.9.2-0ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
    [0.9.0]
    - Fix invalid XAUTHORITY variable being set for second X server.
    - Fix bug where switching users created X servers without VTs
    - Release a VT when the X server on it stops
    - Greeters are now just standard X sessions that are stored in
      /usr/share/xgreeters.
    - Drop most of the configure options, they aren't necessary
    - Config changes:
      - Major reorginisation of configuration to make it easier to configure and
        understand.  Users should set [SeatDefaults] section with settings for
        all seats, and can override each setting in a per seat configuration.
      - Default seats are now specified using a [Seat:<name>] section.  If no
        seats are specified then one is started.  This can be overridden by
        setting start-default-seat=false in [LightDM].
      - Support setting autologin user to guest account
      - Split the user accounts configuration into /etc/lightdm/users.conf so
        the  main config can be private.
      - The default user session is now "default".  Distributions should put a
        symlink to their chosen default or set one in lightdm.conf.
      - XDMCP keys now stored in keys.conf
    - liblightdm API changes:
      - Both libraries are now version 1 and have API and ABI guarantees.
      - Face images are now local paths not URIs
      - liblightdm-gobject now uses lightdm_ prefix instead of ldm_
      - Non-greeter functions are now moved out of the Greeter class
      - connect_to_server() is now called connect_sync and blocks until
        completion.
      - start_session() is now called start_session_sync and blocks until
        completion. The quit signal is removed, and the greeter should quit if
        this method returns TRUE.
      - login() is now called authenticate()
      - Greeters now have hints instead of configuration (greeters should load
        their own configuration from /etc/lightdm if they need it).
      - liblightdm-gobject uses AccountsService if it is available
      - Added regression tests for liblightdm-qt
    - D-Bus API changes:
      - Expose Seats and Sessions on org.freedesktop.DisplayManager
      - Add a CanSwitch property
      - Rename ShowGreeter() to SwitchToGreeter()
    - Greeter changes:
      - Drop "example" from the name of the GTK+ and Qt greeters and make them
        official default greeters.
      - Use GTK3 for GTK+ greeter.
      - Removed the Vala and Python GTK+ greeters, they weren't being well
        maintained.
    [0.9.1]
    - Fix up translation build system
    - Add a --with-greeter-user configure option
    - Fix greeter-user configuration not being used
    - Abort greeter if attempted to be run as root and greeter-user set
    - Fix setting session in GTK+ greeter
    [0.9.2]
    - Fix annotation and Vala bindings for getting the UserList singleton
    - Fix GTK+ greeter error label not being shown
    - Don't set SIGQUIT to ignore in child processes
    - Reworked the PAM code as ecryptfs users weren't able to log in.  They
      can now but not sure what changed to fix that!?
  * debian/control:
    - Build depend on libgtk3.0-dev, not libgtk2.0-dev
    - Drop obsolete greeters, use new ones
    - lightdm conflicts with liblightdm-gobject-1 and liblightdm-qt-1 so old
      greeters will be removed.
    - Update versions of libraries
  * debian/lightdm.conf:
    - Removed, no longer needs configuration
  * debian/patches/01_resize_grip.patch:
    - Dropped, not required anymore
