- Fix popup scaling in some HiDPI multi-monitor configurations
- Fix unintended focus delay after entering the wrong password

(LP: #1876837)
- Don't apply updates on logout by default, since it isn't always
desirable (in particular on-battery status is not detected)
- Update translations: cs, pt_BR
* d/rules: Drop -Wl,--as-needed.
It's the compiler default with bullseye toolchains.
* d/watch: Only watch even-numbered (stable) branches
gnome-shell (3.36.1+git20200417-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* Team upload
[ Simon McVittie ]
* New upstream snapshot from gnome-3-36 branch (3.36.1-37-g18a5c7436)
- Fix translated app folder names in overview (LP: #1872434)
- Fix misaligned spinner in lock screen
- Fix warning when a polkit dialog is reset
- Pluralize prompt correctly when asking whether to revert a display
setup change
- Update Finnish translation
* Bump build-dependency on libpulse-dev to 13.
Apparently stable's libpulse0 (in a partial upgrade) causes gnome-shell
to hang, so presumably we need this newer version for something.
(Closes: #958025)
* Bump AT-SPI dependency to a contemporary version.
As with libpulse, there's anecdotal evidence that the version from
Debian 10 is too old to work in practice. (Closes: #958025)
[ Laurent Bigonville ]
* Move the D-Bus interfaces description files to the -common package.
This will make it easier to build some packages, like gnome-terminal,
that have a search provider
[ Jeremy Bicha ]
* Have gnome-shell-extension-prefs recommend chrome-gnome-shell
(LP: #1866841)
- gnome-shell-extension-prefs recommends visiting
extensions.gnome.org to install extensions but that
requires chrome-gnome-shell to be installed
- GNOME Software 3.36 no longer offers installing
GNOME Shell extensions

Title:
[SRU] Add chrome-gnome-shell to the recommends of gnome-shell-
extension-prefs
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-shell source package in Focal:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
* Since GNOME 3.36, Shell Extensions can no longer be installed using
GNOME Software (Ubuntu Software), instead there was a new Extensions
(gnome-shell-extension-prefs) application prepared to replace this
functionality. However, this application itself does not support
installing new extensions, instead, it opens a web browser with a
extensions.gnome.org website that allows browsing and installing new
extensions. This website depends on a chrome-gnome-shell package that
provides GNOME Shell integration (connector) for Firefox, Chrome,
Chromium and other web browsers for this functionality. Without this
connector, it is not possible to install Shell Extensions on Ubuntu
20.04.
* In this SRU, I want to propose adding this chrome-gnome-shell
package to recommends of the gnome-shell-extension-prefs package.
However, since the gnome-shell-extension-prefs package is in a main
repository and chrome-gnome-shell is in universe, it would be probably
also needed to first move the gnome-shell-extension-prefs package to
universe.
[Test Case]
* Install the "gnome-shell-extension-prefs" (Extensions) application.
* Open the "Extensions" application, click the "i" button in the
window header, click the "extensions.gnome.org" link.
* In the web browser window, click on link inside the blue
notification on extensions.gnome.org to install a browser extension
(frontend for the connector), then refresh the page.
* After this, a red notification appears on the web page telling the
user that host connector is not running.
[Regression Potential]
* Without the chrome-gnome-shell package installed, it is not
possible to install Shell Extensions on Ubuntu 20.04.
