Screen reader isn't actived on gdm if installed with a11y enabled

[Didier Roche-Tolomelli]

After installing 19.04 (16/04/2019 image) and enabling in isolinux screen reader:
- screen reader is active in live/install session
After installation:
- screen reader is NOT active in gdm, when picking up user
- screen reader is active in user session

screen reader should be active in gdm.

The code copying the setting is in casper, it has lightdm support but we should look at adding new code for gdm...

Is this the same as bug 1796275?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

@Brian, no, see my comment on the bug you are pointing out. The other bug was about the feature not working anymore since the switch to GNOME, that bug is about the lack of gdm support

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package casper - 1.408

---------------
casper (1.408) eoan; urgency=medium

  * ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility:
    - enable accessibility for gdm as well as for lightdm which was still
      the only option being handled (lp: #1825112)
