Ubuntu quit/logout/shutdown dialog is gone

[Matt Zimmerman]

Binary package hint: gnome-session

The unified Quit dialog, present in Ubuntu 8.04, is missing in Intrepid. I understand this has regressed due to the new gnome-session and the patch needs to be adapted for the new version. debian/patches/11_session_dialog.patch has been dropped, though this isn't documented in the changelog.

Confirmed!

I just want to add, that when you try to shutdown the computer through your gnome's personal desktop options(both of them) it doesn't work, one must instead logout, and then shutdown from the main gnome-login screen. Obviously there are no problems if you shutdown by commands.

Greetings, Felipe.

PS: Intrepid is getting really nice, I liked it so far.
