Accepting, thanks. FTR, I think it's fine to have made improvements in
testing without a separate SRU bug. I have reviewed this change and
testing looks objectively better now.

Title:
Update gnome-remote-desktop to 42.8
Status in gnome-remote-desktop package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-remote-desktop source package in Jammy:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Impact
------
This is a new stable release in the GNOME 42 series
It backports fixes for some crashes reported to errors.ubuntu.com
Changes since the current Ubuntu 22.04 LTS release:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-remote-desktop/-/compare/42.7...42.8
Test Cases
----------
Complete all the test cases from
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/TestPlans/RemoteDesktop
except for the "New Audio Forwarding Feature" test case.
What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
RDP Sharing is a new feature for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS as part of GNOME 42.
(Previously only VNC Sharing was offered.)
RDP Sharing can be used for providing remote support so it's important
that this feature works well because it may be difficult for the
remote admin to fix issues in person.
gnome-remote-desktop is part of GNOME Core and falls under the GNOME
Stable Release Update microrelease exception
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates/GNOME
Other Info
----------
The previous 22.04 LTS SRU, 42.7-0ubuntu1, got stuck in phased updates. We
worked with upstream to do a new 42 release in hopes that this update along
with the SRU for mutter 42.9 (LP: #1998286) will significantly improve the
error rate.
42.7-0ubuntu1 was included in Ubuntu Desktop 22.04.2 so many users
already have that version from the original install or got it before
phasing was halted.
