Public bug reported:

I would like to update Xenial version of gnome-panel to a new upstream
microrelease, 3.18.3.

Apart from translations updates, it fixes two bugs:

* User switching now works correctly when using GDM as display manager
(the LightDM code was not changed). This only affects gnome-panel's own
session menu, not indicator-session which is used by default.

  A test case for this issue is:

  - Start GNOME Flashback session from GDM.
  - Try to select the Switch User action from gnome-panel's session menu.
  - GDM screen with user selection should appear, with ability to restore the 
previous session.

  Upstream bug for this issue is
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769009.

* The scaling support was disabled in GTK+ to improve the experience on
HiDPI displays.

  A test case for this issue is:

  - Try to run GNOME Flashback session on a HiDPI display, i.e. on new
Apple machines.

A package has been uploaded to ppa:ubuntu-gnome-flashback/unstable, the
build logs are available from there too.

Upstream changelog is available at https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-
panel/tree/NEWS?h=gnome-3-18.

Regression potential: the fixes are minimal so should not cause any
regressions.

All fixes in this release are applied also in 3.20.1, which is in
Yakkety.
