Bug Description

A very annoying GTK bug (which breaks copying and pasting, the computer user's favourite activity) has been fixed in GTK 3.24.31. Unfortunately, Ubuntu 21.10 is still stuck on 3.24.30. I'd think that making 3.24.31 available wouldn't break much, but would help a lot of us out.

Can this be 'backported' (is this the correct jargon?) or am I better off upgrading to Jammy Jellyfish even though it's still unstable?
