[Bug 1295405] Re: [needs-packaging] Package and upload to vivid

[Timo Jyrinki]

Thanks Sean! I diffed to the earlier PPA package which I still had
around and it seemed all good. I also briefly installed and tested the
actual functionality and I agree a utility like this is welcome.

Uploaded as 1.1.0-0ubuntu1, now it's in the mentioned NEW queue
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/vivid/+queue?queue_state=0&queue_text= and
needs to be accepted by archive admin.

Title:
  [needs-packaging] Package and upload to vivid

Status in Settings-dialog for lightdm-gtk-greeter:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The Xubuntu team would like to request the upload of a new package to
  the archive for Vivid. This is an extremely useful app to easily
  modify lightdm-gtk-greeter's settings with a GUI, which are otherwise
  only exposed to the user via modifying the file /etc/lightdm/lightdm-
  gtk-greeter.conf (with a text-editor with root-rights).

  The app itself is written in python and mostly modifies the above
  mentioned config-file. It has mostly been authored by kalgasnik, but
  the code and the functionality were reviewed and discussed with me and
  Sean Davis. (Note: all three of us are contributors/maintainers of
  lightdm-gtk-greeter itself.)

  In this process, the app has undergone quite some testing (there is a
  PPA holding packages for easily testing it) and is solid enough that
  we'd like to propose it for inclusion into the Vivid repos.

  This package doesn't affect any others directly or indirectly, so
  there is no chance of conflict or breaking other packages.
