After installing the gtk3 3.24.33-1ubuntu2 proposed updates, I confirm that scrolling down in long documents in gedit works with both the jammy mutter 42.0-3ubuntu2 and the jammy-proposed version 42.1-0ubuntu1.

Otherwise, in gtk3 apps like gedit, it's not possible to scroll past the cursor position. The mutter issue with more details is https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2261 We need to update mutter 42.1 since it includes a lot of bug fixes. GNOME Shell 42.1 (with the corresponding changes to mutter, gtk3 and gtk4) will better comply with the Wayland specifications. The gtk4 bug is LP: #1972722 Test Case --------- Install the updated gtk3 packages. Use gedit to open a long text file. Scroll down past the page break. The document should scroll normally. What Could Go Wrong ------------------- Ideally, GNOME would have done a new GTK3 release for this issue. They will eventually, but it seems better for Ubuntu to be proactive and not further delay the mutter/gnome-shell 42.1 releases. These commits are cherry-picks from the stable branch https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/commits/gtk-3-24/ NOTE ---- To avoid a temporary mismatch related to phased updates, we want this update to be 100% phased before releasing mutter 42.1 to jammy-updates.
