Changelog

Version: 50.1-0ubuntu2.1 2026-05-08 21:07:25 UTC

  mutter (50.1-0ubuntu2.1) resolute; urgency=medium

  [ Alessandro Astone ]
  * d/p/u: Avoid processing other events while waiting for snap id.
    Window creation is a synchronous process, so we must make sure to not
    process any other events while we're waiting for a response from snapd.
    This is achieved by using a temporary GMainContext instead of the default.
    (LP: #2147501)
  * d/p/u: Fix cursor spinning after launching an app (LP: #2148049)
  * d/p/u: Fix cursor not changing in popups (LP: #2148481)
  * d/libmutter-18-0.symbols: Add new symbol from patch
  * d/p/u: Acknowledge the existance of non-desktop snap apps.
    A snap may provide some desktop apps and some CLI apps.
    While iterating the apps provided by the snap in search of a desktop file
    that matches, we should acknowledge the fact that some snap apps will have
    no associated desktop file.
    It is otherwise considered a programming error to try and access a json
    member that does not exist. (LP: #2150242)
  * debian: Branch for ubuntu/resolute

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * d/p: Cherry-pick Upstream Fix for crash on hot-plugging similar monitors
    (LP: #2148655)
  * d/p: Fix gdctl crash on invalid backlight (LP: #2149823)

  mutter (50.1-0ubuntu2) resolute; urgency=medium

  * d/p/ubuntu/workspace: De-prioritize focusing desktop windows.
    In ubuntu we use a desktop extension by default, that is not used
    upstream, while it can handle most of the WM changes, there are some
    situations in which the desktop still gets wrongly focused, such as when
    using the Ctrl+Alt+Tab a11y switcher, as it's being considered a "normal"
    window. Fix this by ensuring that the desktop is the latest window to be
    focused, unless explicitly requested. (LP: #2148490)
2148490 Focusing windows using Ctrl+Alt+Tab is impossible once the Desktop has been focused
