This is a big deal. Without the Scale slider Yakkety is now unusable on high DPI displays.

This is due to XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP now containing more than one value, i.e. it is "Unity:Unity7" when it used to be "Unity". u-c-c is still incorrectly doing a simple string comparison to check if it is running under Unity. Looks like this fix for this never got completed / applied (bug 1554878).

Seems to be fixed today. But what fixed it?

gnome-session (3.20.2-1ubuntu6) yakkety; urgency=medium
* Set DesktopNames back to Unity. There are many buggy components that don't
know how to deal with XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP having multiple values, and it's
too close to the release to fix them all.

Marking invalid since it no longer occurs - it will be fixed by the linked branch ultimately which will allow gnome-session to update XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP if they want.
