GNOME 49.1 Lands with Shell & Mutter Fixes, GTK 4.20.2 Backports

A month after the release of v49 of the desktop environment, the first bugfix update, GNOME 49.1, is now available to users. Two things immediately stand out: GNOME Shell and Mutter have received a series of refinements to improve overall desktop responsiveness.

More specifically, Mutter now handles window resizing and moving more reliably, fixes several focus and keyboard issues, and smooths out multi-touch interactions on X11.

At the same time, GNOME Shell patches several visual and usability glitches, including freezes when adjusting quick settings sliders on touchscreens, animation hiccups during overview searches, and a few accessibility bugs in the login screen and screenshot UI.
