unity-greeter breaks .config/dconf/user file

[Michal]

After logging in, when I run unity-greeter, my ~/.config/dconf/user got broken. The Issue is reproducible.

Steps to reproduce:
1. create a new user "bug" (to not brake not brake your own settings)
2. login as user "bug"
3. hit Alt+F2 and run unity-greeter

Result:
Unity greeter gets executed in maximized window,
and your ~/.config/dconf/dconf corrupted and so all gnome3 settings lost.
Gnome is theme-less and ugly.

Recovery:
1. rm ~/.config/dconf/dconf
2. logout
3. login
4. manually set all your gnome settings

Thank you for your bug report, is your database really corrupted or is just disabling org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins enabled keys by applying the config it uses for the greeter?

@seb128: sorry for such late respond. I'm not sure I understand the question.
Will it help if I attach the (probably corrupted) dconf DB file?
Are you able to reproduce the issue?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the db is probably not corrupted, don't run unity-greeter for your user, it changes the gsd config for the user it runs for which lead to behaviour similar to the one you can get
