+ Other Info
+ ----------
+ gnome-shell provides the GNOME version number for the Settings app About
page, as of Ubuntu 22.10 (in earlier Ubuntu releases, this was provided by
gnome-desktop/gnome-desktop3)
+
+ This update requires mutter 44.1 (LP: #2020225). This was done with
+ bumped dependencies in debian/control. gnome-shell 44.1 could be run
+ with mutter 44.1 but it led to build test failures. Also, mixing
+ different versions of mutter & gnome-shell is not supported upstream.
+
+ What Could Go Wrong
+ -------------------
+ GNOME Shell is the heart of the Ubuntu desktop experience.
+
+ A severe enough bug could mean that people are unable to use their
+ desktop version of Ubuntu.
+
+ Smaller bugs could interrupt people's workflows.
+
+ GNOME Shell is included in the GNOME micro release exception
