Merge lp:~fferrai/elementaryos/fix-locking into lp:~elementary-os/elementaryos/os-patch-indicator-session-trusty-old

[Fabrizio Ferrai]

Fix locking, by adding a python script that emulates a dbus interface for light-locker.

create debian/postinst that contains the symlink command

Add symlink to implement gnome-screensaver-command functionality.

[Cameron Norman (cameronnemo)]

This seems unnecessarily roundabout. Why not just run the light-locker-command from where the gnome-screensaver lock command is issued? That would work on light-locker and gnome-screensaver systems alike. The C code would look like so:

if (system("light-locker-command -l")) {
    /* On a light-locker system, and we just locked it */
} else {
    /* On a gnome-screensaver system */
    /* do gnome-screensaver stuff that was done previously */
}

I could put together something tomorrow if you guys think it is a better/simpler idea. Maybe if I actually called the dbus interface directly instead of went through light-locker-command, I could get something suitable for upstream inclusion, but I do not really like GObject C (which I would need to use for gdbus), so I can not say that I will be able to do it soon (however the logic and architecture would be the same).

[Cameron Norman (cameronnemo)]

I should clarify that I am talking about adding a little code to the actual indicator-session source.

[Cody Garver (codygarver)]

Cameron, that's exactly what we need. I just imported light-locker 1.5 to Freya and it "Added DBus interface to communicate with the running light-locker", so that would be perfect.

Fix the locking wiring between gnome screensaver and light-locker
with a python middleware that emulates a dbus light-locker interface.
