Bug Description

[Description]
Update cosmic from 3.30.1 to 3.30.2. We cannot just backport 3.30.2 from Disco because we need to drop Debian-s-adduser-doesn-t-allow-uppercase-letters-by-defau.patch as we already got a diffrent patch in cosmic.

We should also include debian/patches/region-Autodisconnect-IBusBus-connected-handler.patch. This patch has been cherry picked from the gnome-3-30 upstream patch and contains a fix for a segmentation fault (LP: #1804424).

NEWS. The upstream changes are covered by https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates/GNOME:

 ===============
 Version 3.30.2
 ===============

 - Translation updates

 Display:
 - Hide unsupported resolutions again
 - Improve snapping
 - Stop night light dialog being destroyed twice

 Online Accounts:
 - Track the lifecycle of CcGoaPanel across async calls

 Region:
 - Fix double-free when closing the input chooser dialog

 Wi-Fi:
 - Disable periodic scan only when Wi-Fi is disabled

[Test Case]
Open gnome-control-center and make sure that the panels in the above list are working properly. Testing all possible scenarios would be problematic but I suggest focusing on:
1. Open the wifi panel and make sure that you can enable/disable the wifi properly
2. On a multi-head setup open the display panel and make sure that you can re-arrange the layout of your displays.

Please follow also the test case for LP: #1804424 that should cover the fixes included in debian/patches/region-Autodisconnect-IBusBus-connected-handler.patch

[Regression Potential]
The changes to the Online Accounts panel, Regions panels and Night Light dialog are pretty safe and there should be no possible regression. Possible regressions:
- wifi panel: you could not be able to enable/disable the wifi
- display panel: you could not be able to re-arrange the monitor layouts on a multi-monitor setup.

Hello Andrea, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gnome-control-center into cosmic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/1:3.30.2-1ubuntu0.18.10.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-cosmic. 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!

errors.ubuntu.com shows that there has not been any increase in crash reports with the proposed release. Moreover I cannot see any possible regression (I played a little bit with the wifi panel and with the display one).
