Ensure that the build succeeds and that the autopgktests pass. Test Case 1 ----------- Make sure that opening and saving files from the Firefox and Chromium snaps still work Test Case 2 ----------- snap install portal-test --edge snap run portal-test Verify that the app seems to still work ok Test Case 3 ----------- Install and test gtk4-demo (from the gtk-4-examples package) as well as a few other GTK/GNOME applications like nautilus and gnome-text-editor, and verify that they continue to launch and work as expected. - [ What Could Go Wrong ] Many of the default Ubuntu desktop apps use GTK4. A serious enough regression could severely break the Ubuntu Desktop. Ubuntu includes xdg-desktop-portal-gnome by default which is used for - many snap actions like providing a file chooser. This is critical - functionality for our snaps. The Ubuntu flavors use a different portal - backend, most commonly xdg-desktop-portal-gtk which uses GTK3, so are - not affected by this SRU. - + many snap actions like providing a file chooser using GTK4.
