44. By Martin Pitt on 2011-10-07

Add debian/patches/00bzr_guest_session_wrapper.diff: Add back the guest
session wrapper part that was uploaded in 1.0.0-0ubuntu4. The patch was
correctly merged into trunk, but the 1.0 branch backport missed this
wrapper part and thus broke AppArmor protection entirely. (LP: #849027)

43. By Robert Ancell on 2011-10-06

* debian/patches/04_language_not_to_LANG.patch:

* debian/patches/05_gdmflexiserver_not_in_PATH.patch:
  - Make sure to insert our own utility path into PATH after PAM
    sets PATH, not before. This ensures gdmflexiserver is present
    in PATH and can be found by gnome-screensaver, gnome-shell, etc.

41. By Gunnar Hjalmarsson on 2011-10-05

debian/patches/04_language_not_to_LANG.patch:
Locale names based on AccountsService's "Language" key may not
go to $LANG, as that property is a language name, not a locale.
(LP: #864618).

40. By Robert Ancell on 2011-10-04

  - Set correct permissions on session log files (LP: #863119)
  - Prefer a locale with a codeset over one without for setting LANG
    (LP: #864618)
  - Introduce a lightdm-guest-session-wrapper session command which MAC
    systems like AppArmor and SELinux can use for attaching a restrictive
    policy to guest sessions.
  - Provide an AppArmor profile for guest session lockdown.
* debian/patches/01_guest_session_lockdown.patch:
  - Applied upstream

39. By Martin Pitt on 2011-09-30

* Add 01_guest_session_lockdown.patch: Lock down guest session with an
  AppArmor profile. This uses the very same approach as gdm-guest-session,
  and copies the profile from it. (LP: #849027)
* 03_launch_dbus.patch: Refresh.
* debian/lightdm.install: Install AppArmor profile.
