I was just bitten by the fact that cgmanager is disabled during distro upgrades. I work on this stuff all of the time and took me a while to remember/figure out what the issue is. I can imagine users less experienced than me to want to throw their machine out of the window:) Oddly, the only clue I could find was in ~/.xsession-errors and this is not even an X session!

Is there anything we can possible do to ensure cgmanager is enabled and started after distro upgrades? Ideally, we would figure out why it's being disabled in the first place, but maybe as a workaround, we can add some check in a postinst script somewhere (ubuntu-app-launch? unity8-desktop-session?) that would enable and start cgmanager.

We really need to address this! Comments?
