Bug Description
[ Impact ]
When auth prompt choice list widget is shown (such as in authd authentication or in gdm-smartcard authentication, when multiple certificates are present in a card), it's not possible to navigate through its items until the user has focused one via the mouse.
[ Test case ]
We're testing the authd case since it's easier to trigger
1. Install and configure authd and a broker
https:/
2. When the broker or the authentication mode to use are requested, the choice list widget is visible
3. Moving around with the arrows or hitting Enter or Escape should lead to the expected action
[ Regression potential ]
Keyboard navigation in other widgets of the authentication prompt (lockscreen or login view) is broken.

---------------
gnome-shell (46.3.1-1ubuntu1) oracular; urgency=medium
* Merge with Debian
* debian/patches: Refresh
* d/p/ubuntu-authd: Add custom button to the qrcode view and automatic ack.
Do not require manual intervention to dismiss the qrcode view and start
the qrcode authentication, and support regenerating the qrcode using
a custom button (LP: #2072710, #2072711)
* d/p/ubuntu-authd: Add support for showing the login code in the qrcode view
(LP: #2072714)
* d/p/ubuntu-authd: Cleanup prompt view when changing auth mode.
When switching from an auth mode to another we need to hide the uneeded
items and cleanup the messages, do it so that switching form password
auth, to a field-less view works as expected (LP: #2072718)
* d/p/ubuntu-authd: Fix key navigation on choice list and waiting items.
Make possible to use key-navigation automatically when such views are
shown (LP: #2072716)
gnome-shell (46.3.1-1) experimental; urgency=medium
[ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
* New upstream release (LP: #2072703)
* debian/control: Remove unused dependencies, following upstream.
Upstream meson.build removed various unused dependencies, so drop them
from our control file too
* d/p: Do not make tray icons to take any input event directly.
This is all handled through their actor proxy representation (LP: #2012388)
* d/p: Resize tray icon windows to respect their actor representation
(LP: #2012388)
* debian/changelog: Reference bugs fixed in previous versions
[ Daniel van Vugt ] node-Forget- properties- cache-on- stylesheet- chang.patch.
* Add st-theme-
To fix crashes that occur when locking the screen from within the overview.
But more generally can occur whenever any extension that modifies
stylesheets (like ubuntu-dock or dash-to-dock) is unloaded (LP: #2069559).
