An upload of ubiquity to bionic-proposed has been rejected from the upload queue for the following reason: "All looks good with the package itself, but sadly there seems to be some leftover .gladep file included with the changes. Could you reupload without it? Or, if it's needed, just mention that in the bug? Thank you!".

It's not strictly only hi-DPI machines - that's just the most common place it is experienced. --- https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/82f7f7e7923663c7b2123c7f1f49af29f6ff4d77 https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/735a2b847e0eeab6c8a7b954de5110e43889be15 https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/dcd4c9da5ee0cc6d36324446e0e49d39705c90b7 https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/cb82f70f9ede07369e8104da9ddf87e28b42257d https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/84a5563af3d2b85f098da832ece4cb8450bfd524 --- WORKAROUND: 1.
