some migrations do not write gsettings values correctly, resulting in keyboard shortcuts not saved in precise->quantal upgrade

[Paul Larson]

= Steps to reproduce =

Option 1:
1. Use up-to-date 12.10, follow instructions for testing at http://people.canonical.com/~tjyrinki/migrationproblems/

Option 2:
1. Install 12.04.1 desktop, also all the updates
2. Choose settings->keyboard->shortcuts: change various hotkeys like to bring up the HUD to shift-ctrl-L, to switch workspaces something non-default and so on, verifying that they work
3. update-manager -d, update to quantal
4. After reboot, observe the problems like keys set to defaults instead of what they were in 12.04, or not working otherwise

Notes: double entries are bug #1050796. HUD key not working was bug #1046212. Various other fixed migration / settings related bugs bug #1046190 bug #1046199 bug #1042041

What should happen:

Settings migrated as written by gsettings-data-convert during session-migration and the generic migration mechanism.

What currently happens:

Migrations seemingly happen in the beginning of the session login, including session-migration scripts from /usr/lib/compiz/migration running gsettings-data-convert being executed. However, the actual settings in this test setup (first login after actual upgrade to 12.10) do not take effect. Schemas are marked as being migrated in .local/share/{gsettings-data-convert,session_migration-ubuntu}.

If the migration is run by hand when the session is already running, migrations seem to work.

--- original description ---

Reproducible on both i386 and amd64

1. Install 12.04.1 desktop, also installed the updates
2. settings->keyboard->shortcuts: change the hotkey to bring up the HUD to shift-ctrl-L, verified that it worked
3. update-manager -d, update to quantal
After reboot, the key to show the hud is Disabled. Also, there are two entries in the list for bringing up the terminal (see attached screenshot)

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Ted Gould (ted)]

Marking as Low since it only returns the values to the defaults. It still makes a very usable system (perhaps more so ;-) ) and only requires resetting the hotkeys to fix. It is also very hard to reproduce and is likely to not effect that many users.

Didier says it's a duplicate of bug #1063617 "compiz 1:0.9.8+bzr3319-0ubuntu1 regression: keeps setting gsettings keys to wrong values"

> and only requires resetting the hotkeys to fix.
In my case resetting didn't help. Even Alt+F2 not working

[Russian redneck (otaku-8)]

excuse me, FULL reset helped

[Russian redneck (otaku-8)]

oops, reboot and hotkeys not working again

[Russian redneck (otaku-8)]

...and now reset of them doesn't help
