Two patches already in our upstream are: * https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-initial-setup/-/merge_requests/53 * https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-initial-setup/-/merge_requests/54 These fixes three pages: "Welcome to Ubuntu", "Ubuntu report" and "More applications" (last page). [ Test plan ] * Enable the screen reader * Launch gnome initial setup in "already existing user" mode with `/usr/libexec/gnome-initial-setup --existing-user` * By default, no descriptions in each page will be read, but with the patches in place, each page will be correctly read. [ Where problems could occur ] This patch just add an accessibility label, so, in general, any possible problem should be just wrong accessibility data spoken through the screen reader, but no impact is expected for the average user.
