Public bug reported: Impact ------ There is a new bugfix release in the stable series associated with GNOME 42
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/-/blob/1.72.1/NEWS 2 of the bugfixes are already in Ubuntu 22.04. One of the others fixes a memory leak. We would like this update to be in Ubuntu in time for 22.04.1 LTS Test Case 1 --------- Install the update Log out Log back in GNOME Shell should still work well Test Case 2 ----------- Verify that the gjs apps still run ok: - gnome-books - gnome-characters - gnome-maps - gnome-sound-recorder - gnome-sushi - gnome-weather Test Case 3 ----------- gjs has build tests and autopkgtests (installed tests). Those should all complete successfully. What Could Go Wrong ------------------- GNOME Shell is the heart of the Ubuntu desktop experience. gjs is a key component of GNOME Shell. A severe enough bug could mean that people are unable to use their desktop version of Ubuntu. Smaller bugs could interrupt people's workflows. gjs is part of core GNOME and is included in the GNOME micro release exception https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates/GNOME Other Info ---------- A meson regression is preventing gjs from being buildable in Ubuntu 22.10. The Desktop Team will definitely update gjs before Ubuntu 22.10's release. https://bugs.debian.org/1014417 ** Affects: gjs (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Jeremy Bicha (jbicha) Status: Fix Committed ** Affects: gjs (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Medium Assignee: Jeremy Bicha (jbicha) Status: In Progress ** Tags: jammy upgrade-software-version -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gjs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1981722 Title: Update gjs to 1.72.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gjs/+bug/1981722/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
