Duplicate partitions shown

[Lionel Le Folgoc]

[Impact]
* Duplicate partitions shown on the desktop.

[Test case]
* Open your Xfce/Xubuntu session.
* Partitions are repeated twice on the desktop (two icons for each).
* Install xfdesktop4 from -proposed
* Restart your session and repeat the steps above.
* There should be only one icon per partition now.

[Regression Potential]
* Missing partitions.

Xfdesktop equivalent of Bug #1039375.

Here's a proposed patch to fix the issue. I'll upload the fixed package to quantal-proposed in a few days once I've checked that my patch doesn't break things badly.

[Lionel Le Folgoc (mrpouit)]

Uploaded to quantal-proposed, waiting for approval.

Yes, it hasn't been accepted yet, a request for testing will be posted here once it's available in -proposed.

[Lionel Le Folgoc (mrpouit)]

Uploaded to raring as well (with a great revision number) now that it's open for development.

[Lionel Le Folgoc (mrpouit)]

On hold for now, cf. the thunar bug for rationale.

[Clint Byrum (clint-fewbar)]

Lionel, do you want us to accept or reject xfdesktop4 v4.10.0-1ubuntu1.1 which is in the quantal-proposed queue? Please clarify "on hold". Thanks!

[Lionel Le Folgoc (mrpouit)]

Since the thunar package was accepted, forget about my last comment, feel free to accept this one as well, thanks.

[Clint Byrum (clint-fewbar)]

Hello Lionel, or anyone else affected,

Accepted xfdesktop4 into quantal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfdesktop4/4.10.0-1ubuntu1.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
