description |
The unity first_run.stamp file should not be in XDG_CACHE_HOME. As it is a _cache_, it can be ephemeral. Rather, it should be in XDG_CONFIG_HOME. Once the keyboard shortcut list, for example, has been presented, I don't need to be told about it again, even if I need to purge my ~/.cache directory.
This is a problem at our site, where XDG_CACHE_HOME is stored on a temporary filesystem, to cut down on the tremendous amount of useless network traffic between workstations and the user's file server. As a result, users now have to learn about Unity keyboard shortcuts on every single login.

[ Impact ]
The unity first_run.stamp file should not be in XDG_CACHE_HOME. As it is a _cache_, it can be ephemeral. Rather, it should be in XDG_CONFIG_HOME. Once the keyboard shortcut list, for example, has been presented, I don't need to be told about it again, even if I need to purge my ~/.cache directory.
This is a problem at our site, where XDG_CACHE_HOME is stored on a temporary filesystem, to cut down on the tremendous amount of useless network traffic between workstations and the user's file server. As a result, users now have to learn about Unity keyboard shortcuts on every single login.
[ Test Case ]
On a non-fresh install, log in to the Unity desktop. The Shortcuts screen should ne be displayed.
[ Regression Potential ]
The regression potential in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is nil since XDG_CONFIG_HOME is required to be writable in that distribution.
[ Other Info ]
The Ubuntu 14.04 LTS SRU was cherry-picked from Ubuntu 14.10 where the fix has been in production use for some time and has been stable. |
