Install the desktop and exercise the screen reader in a variety of situations. Optionally, but ideally, test the installer too. There are some changes in here relating to Chromium and web browsers, so maybe check those. [ Regression potential ] If this update is busted the screen reader might not work. In a more targetted way, if some of the browser-related fixes are bad then we could regress browser support. ** Affects: orca (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Fix Released ** Affects: orca (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Iain Lane (laney) Status: In Progress ** Also affects: orca (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: orca (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: orca (Ubuntu Focal) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: orca (Ubuntu Focal) Assignee: (unassigned) => Iain Lane (laney) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1876748 Title: [SRU] New stable release 3.36.2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/orca/+bug/1876748/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
