StThemeNode caches its resources aggressively to keep the required
work on paint to a minimum - right now, resources are only recreated
on allocation changes.
In order to update the background-image property correctly when the
underlying file changes, resources need to be recreated without a
size change, so add an explicit method for that.

The current API assumes that image data loaded from files remains
valid during the life time of the shell. This assumption is mostly
valid for image files we provide ourselves (with the exception being
designers working on those files), but not necessarily for "external"
files - provide API to explicitly remove cached data associated with
a URI for those cases.

The screenshield requires gdm 3.5, which can be problematic in

The speed and quality properties have been removed in favor of properties
closer to the upstream library.
Removing the properies from the pipeline would result into a huge
slowdown so we have to map the old values to the new ones.
According to the source code of the old vp8enc element quality maps to
(int)(63 - quality * 6.2) for min_quantizer and max_quantizer, while
speed maps to cpu-used = speed == 0 ? 0 : (speed - 1).
So set min_quantizer and min_quantizer to 13, and cpu-used to 5 based on
the above formulas.

When using an input method like IBus, the IM is expected to process
key events before anything else. Currently this doesn't always work
as expected, as the event filtering is done in the default handlers
of the key-press and key-release events, e.g. only after other
handlers have been run.
To allow the IM to filter events earlier, move the code to a
captured-event handler instead.

st_texture_cache_load_from_raw() enforces a square ClutterTexture,

Clutter will try to unmap during a dispose if we have a parent, so if we

The original design for the overview had buttons for searching for

If the user is already active when the notification pops up, we

To allow more than one summary icon actor for a source we split

While modal dialogs were attached to the parent's titlebar, it

When running with Valgrind, this helps us ensure that we're managing

There is a race if a channel is invalidated during its preparation: the

We explicitly include NoDisplay applications in the ShellAppSystem because

Lots of things here were unused. First, we don't need to calculate
the js_dir when not running from the source tree, which makes the
branch mostly empty, meaning we can merge the two branches.
This allows us running uninstalled. While we're at it, though, remove
JHBUILD_TYPELIBDIR. jhbuild shell should add its own stuff to GI_TYPELIB_PATH,
and we don't want to half reimplement jhbuild. The wrapper script should be
solely for the case of running from the source directory, and not care about
jhbuild at all.
If start_shell throws an exception for whatever reason, the finally
handler will run before shell has been set, leading to a "referencing
an undefined local variable" error.
If a request isn't found in shell_network_agent_set_password() or
shell_network_agent_respond(), then g_return_if_fail() rather than
crashing. OTOH, if a request is not found in
shell_network_agent_cancel_get_secrets(), then just ignore it
silently, since that could legitimately happen.

Right now, we are hard-depending on the presence of Evolution by
using its settings schemas. This is likely to be unpopular, and
also causes instability if someone happens not to have Evolution

for the keys we need.
To avoid a string-freeze break, we rely on the translations in
Evolution - if Evolution isn't installed, the key descriptions
will be untranslated in dconf-editor.

If run under jhbuild, gnome-shell is in PATH, so trying to restore
is just running it again, likely failing in the same way (with the
additional problem of detaching the shell from the terminal). Also,
this is using deprecated GConf keys, and deprecated pygobject
bindings.
The jhbuild wrapper is expected to be run through jhbuild run, or
in the uninstalled case inside a jhbuild shell, so there should
be no need to set XDG_DATA_DIRS and friends.
dconf-daemon is available since 2.32, so there is no need to
start it manually (and in fact, it should not be running normally).
Similarly, notify-osd and notification-daemon should not be
dbus activated, but rather autostarted by gnome-session, and
therefore not running in a gnome-shell session.
Introduce a new gnome-shell-perf-tool, which can be used instead
of the old gnome-shell-jhbuild wrapper to gather data about gnome-shell
performance and submit to shell-perf.gnome.org. This runs the
shell with no extra setup beyond the WM_CLASS filter, so it can
be used for a jhbuild setup or for an installed shell.
Currently the scroll event code only handles scroll events if the
adjustment's value is within the "lower" and "upper" limits. The
likely intent was to pass events to a parent scroll view when
reaching the bounds (uh, nested scroll views!), but apparently
we never made use of this, as the upper bound is actually wrong
(an adjustment's maximum value is upper - page_size, not upper).
Just handle all scroll events unconditionally and rely on the
bound checks in StAdjustment.

Evolution now stores its selected calendars and tasks in GSettings, not

The result is ugly since we have a Gnome-shell-calendar-server fallback
application, but I don't think it's worth installing a desktop file
and having a string break, since this is pretty uncommon (only for
manually added calendars without the password stored in gnome-keyring),
and apparently this is being rewritten for 3.5 to have the dialogs come
the e-d-s daemon rather than from the individual application.

Icon theme change signals aren't noticed immediately, they're usually
noticed when trying to load an icon. Since icon theme changes cause a
style change, and most icon widgets try to re-load their texture during
a style change, this means that we get a stack like this:
st_texture_cache_load_icon
gtk_icon_theme_lookup_icon
gtk_icon_theme_changed
st_widget_style_changed
st_texture_cache_load_icon
Rather than making every place that uses StTextureCache re-entrant,
punt the notifying of icon theme changes to an idle handler instead.

We've been dangling on the edge of unsafety, unnoticed, for a little while
about the reference count safety of ShellScreenshot. GJS owns the entire
reference count, so as soon as it goes out of scope it could die, causing
GJS to try and fetch the corresponding wrapper object for a stale pointer.
We haven't seen any crashes because of luck -- SpiderMonkey tries to group
together deallocations to limit GC pauses, and there isn't really a lot
of GC pressure in the duration that a screenshot happens, so we tend to
be mostly stable. But in the case that you create a lot of objects while
a screenshot is going on, by hammering the "Print Screen" button, for
example, you can destroy the GObject before the callback finishes.

In the case that we don't have an icon corresponding to the gicon, it's
more than likely that the code calling load_gicon will know more about
what it wants as a fallback than the texture-cache itself. In fact -
we had a whole lot of dead code that would try to fall back, but never
did because we always returned a valid actor.
This was causing certain applications with invalid icons to not get the
fallback icon because an icon couldn't be found. Fix up the one place
where we don't have an explicit fallback icon codepath, and then stop
doing what we were doing.

This assignment was shadowed by the giant switch above. Since the

keep that instead of the assignment.
Since the invoker for navigate_focus has an extra parameter, annotations
from the invoker aren't applied on the vfunc itself. Fix that by annotating
the vfunc separately.
In the workspace-collecting code we add a check to avoid collecting a

This allows us to do directional keyboard navigation when there's no
actor inside the horizontal or vertical strip extending from the
origin actor but there are other actors to the sides of that strip

move diagonally.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663901
For arrow keys navigation, when moving from a widget which isn't a
descendant of the widget we are going to, it's unexpected that focus
moves to the target's first descendant instead of the closest to the

This requires us to use absolute coordinates to compare widgets since
we no longer have the guarantee that the widgets we are comparing are

Now that StWidget is a group of sorts, it needs to account for its children
in its paint volume. Unfortunately, this causes havoc for StBoxLayout, so it
needs fixing - it's unknown why it worked when chaining up to near-identical
code in StContainer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670034
The get_focus_chain() implementation in StWidget just returns all
children, it should filter for visible children instead. This

removed the correct implementation in StContainer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670904
Now that ClutterActor has a ClutterContainer implementation, we
can start removing StContainer. To help make this a bit more

StContainer a compatible API wrapper around the ClutterActor
implementation, and then we'll remove those wrappers in later
commits.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670034
Since an StWidget now has children, it needs to allocate those children
properly. Defer to the currently installed layout manager, like Clutter
does.
Now that we have something that allocates children in St, to prevent
double allocations, we use clutter_actor_set_allocation rather than
chaining up to StWidget::allocate.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670034
Now that StWidget is concrete and instantiable, we need to do something
other than return an adjusted 0 for width and height. Just chain up
to ClutterActor's default implementation, which uses the layout manager.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670034
Since we want to paint children by default in StWidget, we need to
provide a way for custom subclasses to paint their CSS backgrounds
without painting children... introducing st_widget_paint_background.
Additionally, remove any custom paint/pick handlers added by subclasses
of StWidget that just painted their children. This will cause double
painting if left alone.
This also removes the hacky things that some subclasses of StBin did
to prevent their one child to be painted by StBin.

Clutter now provides two new properties on ClutterActor - first-child

ConsoleKit is being obsoleted by systemd. Accordingly port the CK logic
in the gnome-shell automount manager to systemd-logind APIs.
This makes use of systemd-logind's native C APIs which are much easier
to use than the D-Bus APIs in this case, and much faster too (since they
are synchronous and directly query the kernel for the information we
need). The dependency is compile time optional, and in order to be nice
to the Debian folks g-s compiled with this enabled fill automatically
fall back to CK support on systems lacking systemd.
A new tool, 'gnome-shell-extension-prefs' can load a new entry point from

map, or unmap, each one of them, respectively.
This means that the requirement to override map and unmap for composite
actors to map and unmap the internal children has been dropped.

Since our implementation of background-size is now CSS-compliant, we
do not need this subtexture hack that clips a "leak". The comment here
is also incorrect.

It seems that accidentally, two variables were swapped in one code path
of the background-size implementation, causing interesting but wrong
images for some elements.

Recent mutter changes made MetaShapedTexture not a ClutterTexture,
but instead a special ClutterActor subclass that implemented the texture-y
bits itself. Use recently introduced API in MetaShapedTexture so that we can
get the raw texture data and spit it out as a PNG.
Use the new meta_shaped_texture_get_image() to get a window's texture data.
meta_shaped_texture_get_image() flattens the image against any mask it may
have, so a screenshot of it should look exactly as it does on the display.

Instead of adding every rendered frame into the recording, drop frames
and only buffer and record enough frames to match the target framerate.
Increase the default frame rate from 15 to 30, since now that we're
actually enforcing framerate, it's noticeable that 15fps is not smooth.

The default pipeline was fairly aggressive about quality, and could
be too expensive for some computers. Decrease the quality setting for
the vp8 codec from 10 to 8, and increase the speed setting from 2 to 6.
(Basically, quality affects the visual fidelity of the end result, while
speed affects how much CPU the encoder uses to get a high compression
ratio at that quality level.)
Remove videorate from the pipeline, since the GStreamer VP8 encoder can
handle variable-framerate streams. This means that we won't spend CPU
encoding duplicate frames added by videorate.

We need to indicate that our GStreamer source produces timestamped
frames, instead of the default, which is to produce a stream of bytes.
This is needed for correctness, and to avoid warnings for some
pipelines.

For the Intel drivers, using glReadPixels() to read into client-memory
directly from the frame buffer is much slower than creating a pixel
buffer, copying into that, and then mapping that for reading. On other
drivers, the two approaches are likely to be similar in speed. Create
a ShellScreenGrabber abstraction that uses pixel buffers if available.
Use that for screenshots and screen recording.

Use the correct clip offsets when taking the screenshot of a window, to
exclude possible invisible borders and to include the case where the
window doesn't have any frame itself.
