Title: Probles with Clutter Status in clutter-gtk package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Running Xubuntu 20.04.4 I've started seeing all sorts of programs failing in the last week apparently due to clutter. This includes Geeqie and Cheese, and possibly Zoom, although I haven't tracked down the problem there. For example, when I try to start geeqie, I get: Can't initialize clutter-gtk. Start geeqie with the option: --disable-clutter When I try to run cheese I get: (cheese:1207183): Clutter-CRITICAL **: 17:54:24.432: Unable to initialize Clutter: Unable to initialize the Clutter backend: no available drivers found. ** (cheese:1207183): ERROR **: 17:54:24.432: cheese-application.vala:89: Unable to initialize libcheese-gtk Trace/BPT trap(coredump) In researching the problem I ran across this article: https://blogs.gnome.org/clutter/ Now, I have no idea what clutter is/does, but it seems to now be retired. Was the package removal back-ported to earlier releases of Ubuntu? The gir1.2-gtkclutter-1.0, gir1-clutter-1.0 and gstreamer1.0-clutter-3.0 packages are still installed. Any guidelines here? Thanks.
