msva-perl (0.9.1-1ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low
* Provide an upstart user session job. It works like this:
- Start monkeysphere-validation-agent before starting the session (on
starting xsession-init)
- Because msva-perl stays in the foreground, we can't export its
environment variable (which it prints on standard output).
- It also has a mode in which it can take a child to run. The agent keeps
running as long as the child is running.
- Provide a child which runs `initctl set-env' to set the environment
variable.
- It turns out that upstart continues the job started as soon as it has
executed the main script. This means that the session is started before
the `initctl set-env' has had a chance to run. So make the child script
emit an event after running set-env which a *second*, empty, job
(msva-block) waits for and blocks the session start.
