Bug Description

Binary package hint: at-spi

The accessibility infrastructure fails to transmit information between user sessions even when X displays the information visually. This is primarily a problem when wanting to run administrative utilities or ubiquity. The upstream bug (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163132) has been discussed cat length. There are possible workarounds, but the real solution probably requires a change in Orbit2.
