Public bug reported: I wear my Ubuntu Developer hat here.
arctica-greeter 0.99.0.4-1 was uploaded to Debian Sid today, and except for one (relatively major) commit, is a bugfix release. Here is the full diff: https://github.com/ArcticaProject/arctica- greeter/compare/0.99.0.3...0.99.0.4 The one commit that I have concerns about breaking Feature Freeze is this one in particular: - Port HiDPI support from slick-greeter. - https://github.com/ArcticaProject/arctica-greeter/commit/7ddfa06d6248ca18e33781ec8ba20163fc4c2ad5 This has a change of: 107 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) The gist of this commit is adding a script that checks for HiDPI support, configuration values for it, and if the detection reveals that the monitor supports HiDPI, it sets the scale factor with the following line: GLib.Environment.set_variable ("GDK_SCALE", "2", true); I believe this is beneficial to include in Ubuntu 18.04 because the rest of the commits are bugfixes, and HiDPI support is important for a lot of users with modern displays. This commit is also fairly non-intrusive and uses built-in GDK functions which are known to be sane.
