The GNOME team would like to do the GNOME Shell 49 transition soon. To
simplify the transition, we want to complete the glib 2.86 transition
first.

This transition is bigger than usual since we are also bundling the
update to gnome-session and gdm3 since there are breaking changes this
time. There is also a gjs mini transition (only adds gjs and polari to
the list) that we figure we might as well do together since it
requires commits found in gnome-shell 49 anyway.

Affected packages
-------------------------
Source uploads are needed for these packages, all owned by the Debian
GNOME team:
- gdm3
- gjs
- gnome-initial-setup
- gnome-kiosk
- gnome-remote-desktop
- gnome-session
- gnome-settings-daemon
- gnome-shell
- gnome-shell-extensions
- mutter
- polari
- xdg-desktop-portal-gnome

I believe the Budgie maintainers want to upload budgie-control-center
& budgie-desktop at the same time so we will need to ping them.

Packages to be removed
--------------
I expect that we'll remove a high number of GNOME Shell extensions
from testing for this transition. The porting work is often simple but
I don't want to be personally responsible for the growing list of
extensions that I don't use. And it's early in the forky cycle.

https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/bts-usertags.cgi?user=pkg-gnome-maintainers%40lists.alioth.debian.org&tag=gnome-shell-49

glade needs to be removed to complete the gjs transition. It will
probably be auto-removed or removed from ftpmasters before this
transition completes anyway.

Other Info
--------------
These trackers are good although they don't include the extra packages
we are uploading this time:
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/gnome-shell-49.html
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-gjs.html

As we have done previously in both Debian and Ubuntu, I expect that we
will need a manual hint for the transition to migrate. I guess the
package relationships are a bit complex for britney to
automatically understand.

This transition removes the GNOME on Xorg sessions.

I expect that window managers (afterstep, openbox-gnome-session, etc.)
will need manual changes if they want to continue to run with the
assistance of the gnome-settings-daemon & gnome-session utilities. As
long as they aren't part of the Debian tasks, I don't think this
should be a blocker for this transition.

On behalf of the Debian GNOME team,
Jeremy Bícha

gnome-shell-extensions looks like it might also have been tested too

I've asked for a retry of that one as well.


piuparts is good now. gnome-intiial-setup migrated first so it needs
to be removed from the hint. Quoting from
https://release.debian.org/britney/update_output.txt

Trying hint from pochu: budgie-control-center/1.4.1-1
budgie-desktop/10.9.3-1 gdm3/49.1-6 gjs/1.86.0-2
gnome-control-center/1:49.1-2 gnome-initial-setup/49.0-2
gnome-kiosk/49.0-2 gnome-remote-desktop/49.1-2 gnome-session/49.1-3
gnome-settings-daemon/49.1-2 gnome-shell/49.1-5
gnome-shell-extensions/49.0-2 mutter/49.1.1-2 phosh/0.50.1-2
polari/46.0-7
failed: gnome-initial-setup is not a valid candidate (or it already migrated)


I updated the hint, and the lot has gone in.

Cheers,
Emilio
