Bug Description

There is no typing break setting in gnome-control-center. This is the text from the package description:

This package contains the daemon which is responsible for setting the
various parameters of a GNOME session and the applications that run
under it. It handles the following kinds of settings:

 * Keyboard: layout, accessibility options, shortcuts, media keys
 * Clipboard management
 * Theming: background, icons, GTK+ applications
 * Cleanup of unused files
 * Mouse: cursors, speed, accessibility options
 * Startup of other daemons: screensaver, sound daemon
 * Typing break

It also sets various application settings through X resources and
freedesktop.org XSETTINGS.

Of course this bug is about the description being wrong. Not re-introducing the feature.

I made a simple line change to control.in in the /debian
 ~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/wily/gnome-settings-daemon/wily : /debian/control.in (revision 255)

This fixes the package description error.
