To clarify "fixed-in-40" means it is fixed in the upstream mutter master branch, which is version 40. There is no fix queued in the 3.38 series yet.

Hello Christian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted mutter into groovy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/3.38.1-2ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-groovy to verification-done-groovy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-groovy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

The fix was written by upstream, and the downstream fix is being packaged by Marco. So I'm not involved in either of those.

This seems to be fixed!

Normally we would need the version number of the package used during verification, but I'll accept the validation as is for now.
