As many of you already know, Canonical abandoned Unity to return to GNOME as the default graphical environment in Ubuntu. Disco Dingo is the second version to use GNOME since its return to its roots, more specifically v3.32 of the famous graphical environment. If there is no setback, Ubuntu 19.10 Eoan Ermine will arrive with GNOME 3.34, a version that has been in development for weeks. As a development version, it still has many bugs that will have to be addressed in the coming months.
One of the bugs that has already been fixed is one that prevented wallpapers from being chosen that were not provided by the operating system itself. Until now you could not change the wallpapers from the settings but, as in almost everything related to Linux, it could be done by making some manual changes. Now a plus symbol (+) appears from which we can add the image that we want.
GNOME 3.34 will be released on September 11
The official release of Ubuntu 19.10 Eoan Ermine will occur on October 17. Five weeks (and a day) before GNOME 3.34 will be released, as long as everything goes as planned. It is currently being developed with another numbering and v3.33.2 was released yesterday 25 of May. In the information note of its launch they tell us that it is the second unstable version of the 3.34 series.
The proof that software is not worth testing early in its development is found when Abderrahim Kitoni tells us that he had to disable gnome-contacts, gnome-calendar y gnome-maps because the transition of evolution-data-server it was not coordinated very well. This basically means that any developer using GNOME 3.33.2 will not be able to access their contacts, calendar and maps, at least until they release an update that fixes this bug.
For those who are interested, the new GNOME trial version can be downloaded from this link. The full list of changes is here and its source packages can be downloaded from here.
