  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * d/p: Allow Initial setup to trigger the transitions

  * d/p: Remove snapd prompting extension

gnome-shell (49.3-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * d/patches/libgvc: Update libgvc to prevent crashes with newer Pipewire.
    This updates it to 47c47a42 (2026-01-23) which is the latest version,
    and the version currently used in gnome-shell's main branch.
    (Closes: #1126514)
  * d/watch: Convert to v5 format
  * Update Lintian overrides

gnome-shell (49.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * New upstream release
  * d/p/Revert-main-Register-session-with-GDM-on-startup.patch:
    Revert a change that shouldn't have been backported to 49.x.
    Upstream suggested this as a possible trigger for regressions in
    modesetting during first login on some systems (the regression seems to
    be specific to AMD GPUs, but not all AMD GPUs are affected) and it
    seems that it was developed for v50, under the assumption that gdm3
    changes from v50 would be present.
    For whatever reason (possibly timing-dependent), this was reported
    in Debian 13 but not in testing/unstable.
    (Closes: #1125941, #1125273, #1125275, #1126174)
  * d/control: Reinstate direct Build-Depends on the dbus-daemon package.
    gnome-shell's test suite explicitly invokes dbus-run-session, which
    is in the dbus-daemon package. If the dependency had been on dbus, that
    would have been incompatible with dbus-broker, but a test dependency
    on dbus-daemon is fine.
  * d/patches/series: Sort with closest-to-upstream first.
    No functional change.

gnome-shell (49.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Add Build-Depends: libxml2-utils for xmllint
  * Remove direct Build-Depends: dbus
  * Bump Standards Version to 4.7.3
