Details

A regression in gtk3 (and gtk4) messes the scrolling in gtk-based apps (e.g. gedit, vscode).

According to this mutter issue (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2261), this has been fixed in gtk3 by this commit: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/commit/5321fa25a52f9d91ed0c2f5ec59afbd8fd2f770a

Would it be possible to cherry-pick this patch in the Arch package?

Thank you!

affected version of gtk3 package: 1:3.24.33-3
This task depends upon

EDIT: Never mind, just hit the bug on VSCode again...

Old post:

As of gtk3-1:3.24.33+r28+g01edbfb976-1, this seem fixed for me (I've only tested with vscode)

Someone else please confirm as well! :)

@GUiHKX, I advise you to report the issue upstream.

Your comment would indicate that the fix merged by GTK project was insufficient to fix the problem.

(I myself cannot help in this matter as I don't use Wayland and I haven't experienced the OP issue.)

According to mutter devs in the issue I linked on my post, this was fixed in gtk 3.24.34, which is already in Arch's repos.

So, the issue I was having with VSCode seems to be a different one indeed, and I reported it here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2281

I think this can be closed.
