Frederik Feichtmeier (feichtmeier) wrote : Yaru gtk and icon update for focal backported from groovy

[Impact]

 * Focal users will soon have their yaru themes mismatched in snaps and debs

 * yaru-theme-gtk and yaru-theme-icon includes changes for button sizes in groovy, gtk-common-themes will be updated with the updated yaru-theme-gtk so groovies debs and snaps look consistent but this will leave focal deb and snaps incosistent, so focals debs also need an update.

 * Backporting the yaru gtk theme from groovy to focal will fix this, the SHELL theme (yaru-theme-gnome-shell) however should NOT be backported, because the gnome shell version is different and thus the JavaScript components of gnome-shell would then not match the theme any more. The icon theme however, can also be backported if wanted

[Test Case]

 * Update gtk-common-themes from https://gitlab.gnome.org/Community/Ubuntu/gtk-common-themes/-/jobs/937763/artifacts/browse in focal and see how gtk debs like nautilus look different in button sizing than snap-store aka ubuntu software

* install the https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/releases/tag/20.10.6.1 and see how now the deb and snaps look the same

[Regression Potential]

 * no regression potential unless the gnome shell theme is also backported which should NOT happen

[Other Info]

 * The updates were necessary for groovy, because having gtk3 themes with different button sizes than adwaita creates issues with sizes, see https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/pull/2361 for further issues linked
