So we need to wait 14 days??? Why is such huge bug gone into the new release? Please fix it asap. Or add Gnome Shell 49.0 into fc43 repository. Now there is no option to downgrade or upgrade!
This update has been pushed to testing.
Works.
confirmed. Works
This update can be pushed to stable now if the maintainer wishes
Works great! LGTM! =)
No, I can push it stable at any point now. I wanted to give it a bit of time in case any new problems emerged, or any of the GNOME team saw this update and said "aaagh adam you can't just backport that!" or something, so I set its autopush threshold to +5 instead of the usual +3, but I'll push it stable manually soon if nobody complains about anything.
You can also install it immediately using the command shown above,
sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2025-70e9a20c7b.This fixed the bug I was bumping into.

Excellent work! No bugs when drag and drop from Nautilus to any apps. Thanks for quickly bugfixes.
@oxyblade glad to hear it, but this update likely has nothing to do with that. that's probably fixed by the mutter update.
