Description Adam Williamson 2026-02-17 23:25:34 UTC
In GTK 4.21.5, SVG texture heights are incorrect (they are based on the intrinsic *width* rather than the height). This at least causes the GNOME Tour window to be too tall, and probably causes other effects we haven't seen yet.

I've already backported the fix for this in https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2026-55d725cf80 . I'm filing this bug to propose it as an FE, to avoid the Tour window looking weird (and multiple openQA tests failing on every compose).

Discussed during blocker review meeting on 2026-02-23 [1]:

agreed 2440500 - AcceptedFreezeException (Beta) - this is accepted as it's a very obvious fix that addresses at least one highly visible bug (the GNOME Tour window being oversized) and there may well be other cases we didn't spot yet that are worse (for a tall-but-narrow image we could wind up cutting off a lot of it)
