[Bug 1574706] Re: Disabling the welcome wizard doesn’t dismiss it

[Martin Pitt]

IMHO this would be better fixed centrally in phablet-tools (which ships
phablet-config), or in unity8 directly as you say. But if there's a
reason not to do that, can you please tell me how to change
autopkgtest's adb setup script?Thanks!

Title:
  Disabling the welcome wizard doesn’t dismiss it

Status in autopkgtest package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The autopkgtest helper script that sets up a phone for running
  autopilot tests
  (https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/autopkgtest/autopkgtest.git/tree/ssh-
  setup/adb) disables the welcome wizard and edges intro.

  To disable the welcome wizard, it issues the following command:

      phablet-config welcome-wizard --disable

  Which under the covers creates the following file on the device:
  ~/.config/ubuntu-system-settings/wizard-has-run.

  Unity8 doesn’t seem to have any logic to discard the currently running
  wizard when that file is created (maybe on purpose?).

  This results in the phone under test still displaying the welcome
  wizard when control is handed off to the app’s autopkgtests, so
  autopilot tests will most likely fail because the app being launched
  is displayed under the wizard.

  I’m not sure whether not dismissing the wizard when the "wizard-has-
  run" file is being created is intentional. If it is, then the
  autopkgtest helper script needs additional logic to restart unity8 and
  unlock the screen.
