I think Daniel was clear by changing to verification-done that this can go in. We are talking about a less than a second flash, while blocking a bunch of fixes for GNOME Shell in cosmic. Note that this second flash already existed before the fix, and that the fix is correct, it will only be correctly applied once mutter is in.
Daniel, can you please state clearly your intend? Sounds like the GNOME Shell SRU is now blocked for a month, resulting for instance in still no checkbox in GDM for accessibility, which is worse than the current issue we are nitpiking on here IMHO. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789356 Title: The wrong background flashes up briefly during the login animation since Yaru was introduced Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in gnome-shell source package in Cosmic: Incomplete Status in mutter source package in Cosmic: Triaged Bug description: [Impact] The wrong background flashes up briefly (for a split second) during the login animation. The login screen and gnome-shell's system background are meant to be the same image so that the login procedure can VT switch without the user noticing. Then the final desktop expands over the system background. However it appears the login background and system background are not the same image any more, causing a visible glitch during login. [Test Case] 1. Install new version, logout 2. Log in into GDM -> Check that at login startup, the background matches GDM ones (same color, same gradient) 3. Logout, install gnome-session 4. Reboot so that GDM takes gnome-session into account 5. Select GNOME session and login -> At login startup, the background will matche the GNOME default one (from the lockscreen: grey noise), which matches GDM one if reset to default GNOME via update-alternatives. [Regression Potential] This code is loaded at session startup, if there is a syntax error, the session wouldn't start at all.
