Bug#1031879: unblock: gnome-shell-pomodoro/0.22.1-1 (Preapproval)



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
X-Debbugs-Cc: gnome-shell-pomodoro@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:gnome-shell-pomodoro

Please unblock package gnome-shell-pomodoro

There is currently an nasty bug in this gnome-shell extension
which makes the overlay non-exitable, basically make the user
stuck at a kind of lock screen until the pomodoro break timer
runs out (e.g 10 minutes)

Debian bug is #1031528

Upstream bug is: https://github.com/gnome-pomodoro/gnome-pomodoro/issues/635

It is fixed in upstream version 0.22.1-1

Unfortunatly it is not easy to isolate the required patch (I tried and broke
more stuff), as important internal parts have been refactored and bits of those
refactorings are needed, so that I came to the conclusion it would be less
risky to use the new minor upstream release.

Upstream changes are NOT massive:

	Release version 0.22.1:

	* Close screen overlay by hitting Esc key - a failsafe method
	* Don't open screen overlay while a video call app is fullscreen
	* Fixed screen overlays timer label getting ellipsized
	* Fixed screen overlay being over screensaver animation
	* Add --reset commandline option

Upstream diff between the two version:
https://github.com/gnome-pomodoro/gnome-pomodoro/compare/0.22.0...0.22.1

The package is a leaf package, so the risk to break other stuff
is not huge.

unblock gnome-shell-pomodoro/0.22.1-1

Please let me know if this would be OK and then I'll prepare a debdiff
(I don't anticipate the need to change something in the packaging itself)

Cheers,
