Package: mutter
Version: 44.0-2ubuntu4
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
After upgrading my ubuntu system to 23.04, any time I pull a tab off of a firefox browser,
I risk the chance of X11 crashing. I generally hit this issue 6+ times a day.
To minimize this, I attempt to not move tabs around, but this has been a part of my browser
usage for years.
Using coredumpctl, I'm seeing the same callstack as
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2708
There's a downstream ubuntu bug:
https://launchpad.net/bugs/2012230
I asked when ubuntu would incorporate the fix here:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+question/706514
It was suggested I write a debian bug because ubuntu incorporates mutter updates from debian.
The mutter fix "wayland: Set compositor when creating MetaWaylandDataSourceXWayland" is
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2956 and merged to main April 12 2023.
I can see "wayland: Set compositor when creating MetaWaylandDataSourceXWayland" in 44.1.

I believe this is the ubuntu bump to 44.1 when that's available (fix made on April 25 2023):
