** Description changed:

  [ Impact ]
  
  In a Wayland session, changing the desktop cursor theme to anything
  other than Yaru or Adwaita results in a pale grey square as the cursor.
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
  1. Log into a Wayland session.
- 2. Download Gnome Tweak Tool.
+ 2. sudo apt install gnome-tweaks
  3. In the Tweaks app under Appearance, select DMZ-white or Redglass cursor 
theme.
  4. Move the cursor over various window edges such that the cursor shape 
should change.
  5. Verify the cursors you see are the expected ones and not just a grey 
square.
  
  [ Where problems could occur ]
  
  Since the entire cursor selection stack changed both in the lead up to
  this bug and in fixing it, any aspect of the mouse pointer (cursor)
  selection logic could be affected. In any app, in both Xorg and Wayland
  sessions.
  
  [ Other Info ]
  
  The Xorg version of this issue is bug 2062377.
  
  [ Original description ]
  
  After upgrading from Ubuntu 23.10 to 24.04, the DMZ-White mouse pointer
  works correctly when the pointer is over a window, but shows a pale grey
  square when over the desktop or Ubuntu top bar. This appears to happen
  because the /usr/share/icons/DMZ-White/cursors/default file (or symlink)
  is missing. Doing the following appears to fix the problem:
  
  1. cd /usr/share/icons/DMZ-White/cursors
  2. ln -s left_ptr default
  3. In gnome-tweaks change to some other mouse pointer.
  4. In gnome-tweaks change back to DMZ-White.
