Title:
gnome-shell 48 doesn't scale up low resolution bitmap icons
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Status in gnome-shell source package in Plucky:
Triaged
Bug description:
[ Impact ]
Ubuntu 25.04 under Gnome 48 no longer properly scales up low
resolution icons. In the applications grid, small icons appear small
and padded rather than scaled up and low-resolution.
https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/1jks76v/inconsistent_app_icon_sizes_since_updating_to/?sort=old#lightbox
[ Test Plan ]
1. Create a Desktop file with:
$ cat << EOF > ~/.local/share/applications/test.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Test
Exec=/usr/bin/true
Icon=/usr/share/icons/Adwaita/16x16/places/user-home.png
EOF
2. Open the Applications grid
3. Verify that the application named "Test" has a regular size icon,
although evidently low-resolution.
[ Where problems could occur ]
The patch affects any GNOME Shell elements that display images.
Problems would manifest with those images being incorrectly sized.
