I've now uploaded 0.58~alpha1 to unstable that works around this leaving https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/work_items/8419 as the last critical issue¹ which (as far as I can tell) needs a GTK side fix: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/10392 I think with that cherry-picked GTK 4.24 looks o.k. to migrate to testing for touch devices. (sorry for holding things up here btw). https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/10395 fixes another regression but it's not release critical, maybe we can cherry-pick that once/if merged upstream.
