[Bug 1805710] Re: apport-bug compiz incorrectly detects Unity is running on Ubuntu 18.04 GNOME

[Brian Murray]

This is actually an issue in the apport-package hook provided by compiz.
It contains the following:

 18     attach_gsettings_schema(report, 'org.compiz.core:/org/compiz/profiles/%s/plugins/core/' % current_profile)
 19 
 20     unity_bug = False
 21     if ui and "unity" in report['GsettingsChanges'] and report['SourcePackage'] != "unity":

I guess using the gsettings_schema isn't accurate.

Title:
  apport-bug compiz incorrectly detects Unity is running on Ubuntu 18.04
  GNOME

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 18.04 GNOME

  To reproduce:
    - Reporting bug in compiz using apport-bug compiz

  A dialog box pops up "Thanks for reporting this bug. It seems you have
  Unity running." (see screenshot)

  Unity desktop is not running or installed.

  Expected: apport detects that Unity is not running, does not show the
  dialog.
