Public bug reported: Impact ------ There is a new point release in the stable GTK 4.6 series. (The version in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is currently 4.6.3).
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/blob/4.6.5/NEWS 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 snap run portal-test Verify that the app seems to still work ok What Could Go Wrong ------------------- 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 it's not affected by this SRU. The other gtk4 apps installed by default in Ubuntu are gnome-chess and gnome-shell-extension-prefs. gtk is not listed in the proposed set of packages at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates/GNOME but I believe it should be. gtk4 has extensive build tests and autopkgtests. ** Affects: gtk4 (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Triaged ** Affects: gtk4 (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: High Status: Triaged ** Tags: jammy upgrade-software-version ** Also affects: gtk4 (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gtk4 (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: gtk4 (Ubuntu Jammy) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk4 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1976500 Title: Update gtk4 to 4.6.5 Status in gtk4 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gtk4 source package in Jammy: Triaged Bug description: Impact ------ There is a new point release in the stable GTK 4.6 series.
