Public bug reported:
I'm running Ubuntu (Gnome-shell) 20.04 in a QEMU/KVM vm.
When I'm using Wayland, I can open synaptic package manager successfully
by inputting my password.
So far as I can tell, it then will let me download updates to the repos
and allow me to search for packages. (Usually update-manager downloads
the updates automatically, so it's mostly not necessary for synaptic to
do this.
But, when I proceed to install, unless it's a single, small download,
synaptic will lock up the display. The mouse "revolving wheel" stops
turning, and although I can still move the mouse, nothing else works. I
can't select anything with the mouse. I can't even use "Send Key" in the
virtual machine manager to select a console.
If I leave the machine for a while, the download and install completes
successfully in the background.
If I connect to the machine over ssh, I can't shut it down or reboot. If
I issue those commands, ssh just disconnects and the machine remains
running. Only the big red button in the virtual machine manager will do
anything.
None of this is happening when running Xorg.
