Unity Lockscreen shows unlocked desktop while shutting down

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Controlling the shutdown order is not that easy unfortunately, probably moving to upstart would help to fix it.

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 7.3.1+15.04.20141128-0ubuntu1

Attached debdiff between trusty-updates and SRU.

Accepted unity into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/7.2.4+14.04.20141217-0ubuntu1 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 add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done.

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

I've checked it two times and both times I couldn't interact with programs.

All the windows of programs except the Terminal dissapeard. The Terminal console of regural user displayed info about shutting down and no interaction was possible. The same happened when I had root console open it showed without window decorations very briefly (much less then 3 seconds) and I couldn't interact with it.

The third try and I didn't see any programs at all.

The verification of the Stable Release Update for unity has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

I'm still seeing this on an up-to-date Trusty instance.

$ apt-cache policy unity
unity:
  Installed: 7.2.4+14.04.20141217-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 7.2.4+14.04.20141217-0ubuntu1

$ apt-cache policy compiz
compiz:
  Installed: 1:0.9.11.3+14.04.20150122-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1:0.9.11.3+14.04.20150122-0ubuntu1

The reproduction case is:
1) In a Unity environment, start a terminal
2) Lock the screen
3) From the lockscreen, restart the machine

Expected:
  No interaction is possible while the machine is shutting down.
Actual:
  It's possible to interact with the terminal for around 3 seconds.

The SRU instructions didn't include the "open terminal" step, it might be that that's why this was verified even if it's not actually fixed?

This bug is still present in Trusty with the latest Unity version (7.2.5+14.04.20150521.1-0ubuntu1).

The verification instructions were wrong and this bug never actually got fixed.
