Noble Numbat Point-Release Changes

24.04.2

This is a brief summary of bugs fixed between Ubuntu 24.04.1 and 24.04.2.
This summary covers only changes to packages in main and restricted,
which account for all packages in the officially-supported images; there are
further changes to various packages in universe and multiverse.
Some of
these fixes were by Ubuntu developers directly, while others were by upstream
developers and backported to Ubuntu. For full details, see the individual
package changelogs.

In addition to the bugs listed below, this update includes all security updates
from the Ubuntu Security Notice
affecting Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS that were released up to and including February 20, 2025.

gnome-text-editor 2075553 debian: Backport patches to fix crash on launch
ubuntu-settings 2077741 Set default background in GDM gnome-initial-setup session. Use ubuntu default background when using the GNOME greeter session that is default when using gnome-initial-setup from GDM

mutter 2025006 Avoid duplicating or losing colour profile, night light, HDR, or privacy screen updates

gnome-initial-setup 2062971 Align radio button text and its hint below in first Pro page.
gnome-initial-setup 2068614 d/p: Ubuntu pages, bind functions to template. C Functions referenced by the template must be bound to the template or they won’t be properly connected.
gnome-initial-setup 2068862 d/p: Ubuntu pages, ensure welcome screen is loaded
gnome-initial-setup 2068614 d/p: Ubuntu pages, reference private widgets only after construction. They’re just not created earlier, so we ended up referring to NULL pointers instead of the actual widgets
gnome-initial-setup 2062971 d/p: Ubuntu pages, use filling alignment for the Ubuntu Pro offer message
gnome-initial-setup 2068632 d/p: Ubuntu mode, always set the missing connection warning icon. Then it’s visibility is controlled as before, but at least now we will show it even if there’s no connection setup on startup
gnome-initial-setup 2068639 d/p: Ubuntu mode, add pro pages to POTFILE and improve strings to be translated. UI or C files of the Ubuntu Pro pages were not translatable, so add the files to the POTFILES and fix the strings that contained elements that should not be exposed to translators
gnome-initial-setup 2068639 d/p: Ubuntu Pro, add translatable pro services descriptions.
gnome-initial-setup 2062971 d/p: Ubuntu Pro, fix alignment of widgets to match design
gnome-initial-setup 2062971 d/p: Ubuntu Pro, Use a grid to properly align dotted list elements. We were listing the elements using manual formatting and this was broken for lower resolutions or in general for longer texts, making a dotted list not properly padded. So use a grid to manage this, this indeed changes the text used by translations but because of lp:2068639 it’s not a problem because no translations are available so far. Also in this way RTL languages are properly handled
gnome-initial-setup 2068856 d/p: Ubuntu Pro, limit the wrapped label widths not to increase window size.
gnome-initial-setup 2068856 d/p: Ubuntu Pro, animate stack on pro page changes

gnome-initial-setup 2068675 d/p: Ubuntu Pro, scale icons and images to follow widget scaling
gnome-initial-setup 2068859 d/p: Ubuntu Pro, use async spawn of pro client process. The pro client process may slow in responding to us the tokens, so use asynchronous spawn to ensure we don’t hang the UI while calling it.
gnome-initial-setup 2069346 d/p/Ubuntu mode: Do not override links color in the welcome page
gnome-initial-setup 2076189 d/p: Ubuntu Pro, use style that is more consistent with the app: this is not changing anything at functional level.
gnome-initial-setup 2068675 d/p: Ubuntu Pro, scale icons automatically
gnome-initial-setup 2061317 Don’t call the release notes a changelog and mark the corresponding string as translatable

gdm3 1955850 Rewrite xresources_is_a_dir.patch. To fix failure to load files in /etc/X11/Xresources (in case the latter is a directory instead of a regular file).
gdm3 2080498 Remove the Ubuntu-specific rules that made Xorg the default for Nvidia. Updated Revert-data-Disable-GDM-on-hybrid-graphics-laptops-with-v.patch to ensure Nvidia 5xx drivers always get Wayland as the default unless there’s a stronger reason why it won’t work (like modeset has been disabled on the kernel command line).

nautilus 2072569 d/p/u/nautilus-sendto.patch extended: If {nautilus_sendto installed && mailer is a snap && folder in selection}, do not present ‘Email’ option, as Nautilus then compresses the selected files to a zip, which it creates in /tmp, to which a snap doesn’t have access.
