Bug Description
Impact
------
We need to update gtk4 before updating mutter to 42.1. Otherwise, in gtk3 apps like gnome-text-editor, it's not possible to scroll past the cursor position.
The mutter issue with more details is
https:/
We need to update mutter 42.1 since it includes a lot of bug fixes.
GNOME Shell 42.1 (with the corresponding changes to mutter, gtk3 and gtk4) will better comply with the Wayland specifications.
The gtk3 bug is LP: #1972721
Test Case
---------
Install the updated gtk4 packages.
Use gnome-text-editor to open a long text file.
Scroll down past the page break.
The document should scroll normally.
What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
Ideally, GNOME would have done a new GTK4 release for this issue. They will eventually, but it seems better for Ubuntu to be proactive and not further delay the mutter/gnome-shell 42.1 releases.
These commits are cherry-picks from the stable branch
https:/
NOTE
----
To avoid a temporary mismatch related to phased updates, we want this update to be 100% phased before releasing mutter 42.1 to jammy-updates.
