** Description changed: [Impact] When you want to select a monospace font in gnome-terminal's profile editor, it does not always show the regular font but rather an - arbitrarily chosen one. The proposed gtk+3.0 upload cherry picks an - upstream commit which fixes it. + arbitrarily chosen one. The proposed gnome-terminal upload reverts an + upstream commit, which means that all weights/styles for monospace fonts + are shown. It takes us back to how it works in focal. [Test case] - * Install the binaries built from gtk+3.0 in groovy-proposed + * Install the binaries built from gnome-terminal in groovy-proposed * Relogin * Open gnome-terminal -> Preferences and open the window for selecting a - custom font for the profile. Find that it shows regular fonts only. + custom font for the profile. Find that it shows all available monospace + fonts. Confirm for a few fonts that they can actually be selected + without issues. - [ Regression risk ] + [Where problems could occur] - The upstream commit was written explicitly to fix this issue, so the - regression risk should be low. Please note that the only affected file - is gtk/gtkfontchooserwidget.c, so the scope is very limited which in - itself ought to limit the regression risk. + This is a one liner in gnome-terminal and does not affect other + applications.
