** Description changed:

  Impact
  ======
+ This is a new bugfix release in the stable 3.50.x series.
+ 
+ It significantly improves the usability of the new "Microsoft 365"
+ provider. However, that UI improvement changed translatable strings. See
+ Other Info below.
+ 
+ https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-online-accounts/-/blob/3.50.4/NEWS
+ 
+ Test Cases
+ ==========
+ The autopkgtests for gnome-online-accounts should complete successfully
+ 
+ Complete Test Case 2 (Google) from
+ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/TestPlans/OnlineAccounts
+ 
+ What Could Go Wrong
+ ===================
+ gnome-online-accounts is included by default in Ubuntu Desktop, Edubuntu, 
Ubuntu Budgie & Ubuntu Cinnamon.
+ 
+ If gnome-online-accounts is broken, people using Ubuntu may not receive
+ notifications for emails and calendar appointments. This can be
+ mitigated somewhat by using online services via a web browser and
+ enabling notifications in their web browser.
+ 
+ Before Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, gnome-online-accounts used webkit2gtk to handle
+ authentication. By using the browser, gnome-online-accounts can handle
+ many additional types of authentication and is more resilient to API
+ changes and restrictions from the online service providers.
+ 
+ GNOME Online Accounts is part of GNOME Core and is included in the GNOME
+ micro release exception
+ 
+ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates/GNOME
+ 
+ Other Info
+ ==========
+ This update includes changes to translatable strings. This package uses 
Ubuntu language packs. Because language packs are only updated shortly before 
each Ubuntu LTS point release, ideally this update will be included before the 
language packs are updated.
+ 
+ The Ubuntu Desktop team considers the effect of changing translatable
+ strings to be low because the changed strings were very new and weren't
+ translated much. The updated strings have been available upstream since
+ late May and the translation coverage is better although still
+ incomplete. We will likely do another SRU to include another upstream
+ bugfix release (with updated translations) before Ubuntu 24.04.2.
