Bug Description

The proposed upgrade breaks the greeter login: gnome-shell fails starting and return to the greeter (looping)

Avoid to upgrade that package, its a breaker.
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2346000

Gnome-shell needs to be rebuilt with that new libmozjs24 dependency.

mozjs24 (24.2.0-4ubuntu1) zesty; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - rename library packages for g++5 ABI transition.

No nore problem with that new libmozjs 24.2.0-5ubuntu1. With it gnome-shell loads fine; no needs to rebuild it.
