Public bug reported:

Summary:
Changing the cursor theme to DMZ-White or Handhelds using GNOME Tweaks results 
in the system's UI crashing, displaying the "Something went wrong" screen.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open GNOME Tweaks.
2. Navigate to Appearance.
3. Change the cursor to "DMZ-White" or "Handhelds".

Expected Behavior:
The cursor theme should change without causing the system's UI to crash.

Actual Behavior:
The system's UI crashes immediately after changing the cursor theme to 
"DMZ-White" or "Handhelds", displaying the "Something went wrong" screen. This 
requires switching to a non-UI TTY to recover.

Workaround:
To fix the issue, switch to a non-UI TTY and change the cursor back using the 
following commands:
1. Press `Ctrl + Alt + F3` to switch to TTY3.
2. gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-theme 'Yaru'

Additional Information:
- Ubuntu Version: 20.04 LTS
- ubuntu-gnome-desktop  LTS
- GNOME Tweaks Version LTS
