Bug Description
Impact
------
There is a new bugfix release in the stable series associated with GNOME 42
https:/
The current version of gjs in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is 1.72.0.
2 of the bugfixes from 1.72.1 are already in Ubuntu 22.04. One of the others fixes a memory leak.
Test Case 1
---------
Install the update
Log out
Log back in
GNOME Shell should still work well
Test Case 2
-----------
Verify that the gjs apps still run ok:
- gnome-books
- gnome-characters
- gnome-maps
- gnome-sound-
- gnome-sushi
- gnome-weather
Test Case 3
-----------
gjs has build tests and autopkgtests (installed tests). Those should all complete successfully.
What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
GNOME Shell is the heart of the Ubuntu desktop experience. gjs is a key component of GNOME Shell.
A severe enough bug could mean that people are unable to use their desktop version of Ubuntu.
Smaller bugs could interrupt people's workflows.
gjs is part of core GNOME and is included in the GNOME micro release exception
