I'm going to simply remove that subpackage as there were changes in gdm that made this package difficult to update in time for release. It was largely an experimental package anyhow. Best thing to do is 'sudo autoremove --purge ubuntustudio-gnome-branding' at this time.

ubuntustudio-look (20.04.1) focal; urgency=medium

  * Removed ubuntustudio-gnome-branding subpackage (LP: #1870744)
    - it was failing to upgrade due to changes in gdm 3.36
