Bug Description

When changing fonts or font sizes in gnome-tweaks, nothing happens. When you close the application and open it again it has changed back to the original values.

If I run the application with "gnome-tweaks -v" it shows changes in other fields but not for the fonts.

This bug was fixed in the package gnome-tweaks - 46.0-2

---------------
gnome-tweaks (46.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Cherry-pick 2 patches to fix bugs from switch to GTK4:
    - GNOME Shell user themes don't work when extension is
      installed for user only (e.g. from extensions.gnome.org)
    - Unable to set fonts (LP: #2061566)
