Bug Description

[ Impact ]
There is a new bugfix release in the stable series associated with GNOME 44

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/-/blob/1.76.2/NEWS

[ Test case ]
Complete the test cases from
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/TestPlans/gjs

The update is part of GNOME stable updates
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates/GNOME

Gjs applications (such as GNOME Maps, GNOME Characters, GNOME Weather...) and GNOME Shell and its components and extensions should continue working.

[ Regression potential ]
GNOME Shell is the heart of the Ubuntu desktop experience. gjs is a key component of GNOME Shell.

A severe enough bug could mean that people are unable to use their desktop version of Ubuntu (it is used by even GDM, the login screen).

Smaller bugs could interrupt people's workflows.

This update changed fundamentally the memory management of some objects and containers (especially GVariant's), but these changes were already part of gjs released in ubuntu lunar (1.76.0-3).

Hello Marco, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gjs into lunar-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gjs/1.76.2-1~ubuntu23.04.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-lunar to verification-done-lunar. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-lunar. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!
