This bug was fixed in the package gnome-shell - 49~beta.1-0ubuntu3
---------------
gnome-shell (49~beta.1-0ubuntu3) questing; urgency=medium
* Revert "d/p: Keep support being started via legacy desktop file"
GNOME Shell now can start only via newer gnome-session (>= 49~beta), backed
by systemd, but we do not depend on it technically, so it's just better to
break that.
* d/control: Add a Breaks on older gnome and ubuntu sessions.
As per the fallback .desktop file removal, gnome shell requires newer
gnome session or ubuntu session.
However, this is not a dependency, so let's just instruct apt to update
the shell together with a newer version of the session
* d/p/ubuntu-authd: Do not fail verification on PAM error messages.
We used to mimic the old behavior of gnome shell, by failing on any PAM
error message, this is breaking PAM stacks where a module fails with a
non-fatal error though, such as when a password change is required or
when authd is not reachable for whatever reason. (LP: #2120634)
* d/p/ubuntu/snapd-prompting-extension: Remove linting not required files.
And also move the patch into the ubuntu namespace
* d/p: Add more complete re-implementation of Gio.DesktopAppInfo
* d/p: Cherry-pick upstream quicksettings connections to enterprise AP fix
(LP: #2120331)

Bug description:
Upstream patch:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/3834
(currently being upstreamed, WIP)
Impacts Noble, Plucky, Questing
(Jammy's quicksettings menu uses a different view which this bug isn't
applicable to.)
SRU Justification:
[ Impact ]
network.js passes an incorrect variable type when attempting
to connect to an enterprise AP from the quicksettings panel.
This patch corrects this behavior, allowing the panel to be
loaded.
[ Test Plan ]
1. Set up a WPA or WPA2 access point. (You do not actually need a RADIUS
server to reproduce the issue, since it occurs simply when trying to load the
credential popup.)
2. On your test device, click the quick-settings menu, then expand the Wi-Fi
AP list. Select your enterprise AP
[ Fix ]
Adjust the variable type in network.js to match what the gnome-
settings panel and gnome-shell actually expect
[ Where problems could occur ]
There should be no regressions here, since prior to this patch,
launchSettingsPanel() was passing an invalid variable type that was
failing a broad gnome-shell assertion, halting the desired command
from running.
Other callers of launchSettingsPanel() may be impacted by this change
(but I would actually suspect that they'd suffer from the same issue,
so my patch may fix those cases as well if so)
