Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: libadwaita-1 at packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:libadwaita-1
User: release.debian.org at packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package libadwaita-1

[ Reason ]
New upstream bugfix release

[ Impact ]
Assorted cherry-picked bug fixes, in particular:
- a crash (libadwaita#1032 upstream)
- a critical warning indicating wrong resource management that could
  lead to a crash (the only change in 1.7.4)
- unreadable text in various widgets when they are disabled
  (insensitive, greyed-out) (libadwaita#1020 upstream)

[ Tests ]
A functionally equivalent version has been in experimental for about a 
week with no regression reports.

Manual testing: my GNOME desktop system continues to work normally 
(tried various apps such as GNOME Control Center, Nautilus, GNOME 
Software, GTK4 widget gallery demo)

The autopkgtests still pass, but they're only superficial.

[ Risks ]
This is a key package in our default desktop environment, but the changes 
are narrowly-targeted and would be straightforward to revert.

The noisiest changes are CSS tweaks for libadwaita#1020 and 
libadwaita#967, which are more data than code.

[ 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 testing
