[ Reason ]
A new upstream bugfix release, which wasn't ready soon enough to be
included in 13.0.
[ Impact ]
Various upstream bug fixes, listed in more detail in d/changelog,
ranging from important to minor.
There's also a translation update for Thai, not shown in the diff.
[ Tests ]
An equivalent version has been in unstable since 2025-08-08 and in
testing since 2025-08-14 with no regression reports. The proposed
version works normally on a trixie system (gdm and a GNOME session).
I haven't attempted to reproduce specific bugs.
[ Risks ]
Key package for our default desktop, but the changes are reasonably
well-targeted and seem low-risk. We have had good results from taking
this particular project's stable-branch releases in the past.
Bumping the gjs dependency looks unexpected for a stable update, but the
version of gjs in stable is newer than this anyway, so it doesn't
actually make any practical difference.
Stylistic changes in js/dbusServices/extensions/ are not something I
would have accepted in a stable branch if I was the upstream, but they
seem to have considered it important enough to backport, and arbitrarily
reverting this part seems riskier than keeping it.
[ Checklist ]
[x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
(filtered to skip the translation update)
[x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
