For those that have tested my PPA please remember to purge the PPA - its
a test and will be removed at a later date.
sudo ppa-purge ppa:ubuntubudgie-dev/scratchy

- I just installed gnome-maps-3.36.1, but when I use "gnome-maps" on the
command line I get the
+ [Impact]
+
+ * GNOME Maps on focal no longer starts.
+
+ * From the upstream report this is because the GNOME Maps
+ data provider no longer provides the satellite data
+ that the app required.
+
+ https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-
+ maps/-/commit/22e32384f5d3623d8fdc8c330a0adcda3047cd7a
+
+ Upstream bug report https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-
+ maps/-/issues/382
+
+ * GNOME Maps is a component of Ubuntu Budgie packageset. It's a
+ universe package
+
+ [Test Plan]
+
+ * Simply start the application on Focal. The application will not
+ start.
+
+ * Next enable the proposed repository via Update Manager - Settings
+
+ * Via a terminal install the application
+
+ gnome-maps
+
+ * disable the proposed repository again via Update Manager - Settings.
+ This is important so that you dont install any other test packages
+
+ * Run gnome-maps via your chosen Desktop Environment - e.g. in Budgie -
+ Menu - Maps
+
+ * The application will open displaying a map
+
+
+ [Where problems could occur]
+
+ * Confusion on behalf of the user because they may be used to seeing
+ the Satellite View.
+
+ The patched gnome-maps disables Satellite View.
+
+ Note - in 21.04 and 21.10 versions of GNOME Maps, Satellite View is
+ also not available. So this is not a regression, but for Focal users
+ its an obvious visual change.
+
+ * This fix applies the upstream commit that states that it resolves
+ this matter. No other commits are mentioned on the upstream bug report.
+
+ * I suppose the risk is that an additional commit may have been made
+ upstream that upstream silently applied but did not show up in the patch
+ report.
+
+ * As such, the user testing this should be fairly familiar with gnome
+ maps previously to confirm no additional regressions for the now working
+ application i.e. previously the app did not run.
+
+ [Other Info]
+
+ * Please note - on the upstream bug report, the maintainers state that the
accepted fixed version of the 3.36 series is 3.36.7.
+
+ * Focal is on 3.36.1. From a SRU point of view I would prefer if Focal
+ was to move to the upstream maintainers recommended micro version
+ release.
+
+ * However, I don't see any test suite in the application source code.
+ I'm not sure therefore that Ubuntu's SRU process would accept such a
+ microrelease without an OK from either a technical board member?
+
+ * If such an exception is OK'd I'm happy to run through an uplift -
+ possibly via a separate raised bug report - please advise.
