Test Case
---------
GNOME Shell is written in gjs so let's test GNOME Shell. After installing the update, reboot.
Also check some of these apps:
gnome-characters
gnome-documents
gnome-maps
gnome-sound-
gnome-sushi
gnome-weather
polari
All of them except for gnome-sound-
Regression Potential
-------
Well if gjs has a problem, it could leave Ubuntu GNOME users unable to log in to their computer at all since gdm uses part of gnome-shell to work. But I did test build, install and reboot before uploading this update to Ubuntu.
