I verified that the test was executed according to the [test plan]. I understand kinetic is not part of this SRU. The reason wasn't explained anywhere, but I'm assuming it's because it's a) ending support soon; and/or b) this glib update is more useful for core22 snap and core desktop deployments, which are 22.04 only (am I correct?).
That being said, of course it will also be available to regular 22.04 desktops, so it must not break that scenario. And this was tested in comment #9. The package built correctly in all architectures and Ubuntu releases it was meant for. There are no DEP8 regressions, or they were fixed. There is no SRU freeze ongoing at the moment. There is no halted phasing on the previous update. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to glib2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1998267 Title: glib not aware of snap confinement Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in glib2.0 source package in Jammy: Fix Released Status in glib2.0 source package in Kinetic: Won't Fix Status in glib2.0 source package in Lunar: Fix Released Bug description: [ Impact] glib is not aware of snap confinement and this causes the internal logic to decide when to use portals to not work as designed. One important case is the gsettings backend, which should use a keyfile when confined rather than using dconf. When using a fully confined desktop this is required, as dconf is not suitable for sharing between snaps. This has been fixed in glib main: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/3020 [ Test Plan ] (requires a core snap running the updated glib). 1. Install gnome-calculator snap: $ snap install gnome-calculator 2. Disconnect gsettings interface: $ snap disconnect gnome-calculator:gsettings 3. Run gnome-calculator 4. Change mode from basic to advanced 5. Close and re-open gnome-calculator Expected result: Mode change remembered on second run. gnome-calculator settings written to ~/snap/gnome-calculator/current/.config/glib-2.0/settings/keyfile Observed result: Mode change not remembered on second run, errors shown in console about accessing dconf: (gnome-calculator:1031938): dconf-CRITICAL **: 14:08:56.034: unable to create file '/run/user/1000/snap.gnome-calculator/dconf/user': Permission denied. dconf will not work properly. [ Where problems could occur ] - New bug introduced in glib causing a crash. - Security issue introduced in glib due to accessing snapctl. - Unexpected behaviour change when running snaps with updated glib.
