Hello shine, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gnome-shell into hirsute-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/3.38.4-1ubuntu3~21.04.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-hirsute to verification-done-hirsute. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-hirsute. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Proposed fix tested in hirsute on a Raspberry Pi4 arm64, kernel 5.11.0-1009-raspi

Packages installed from hirsute-proposed:

gnome-shell (3.38.4-1ubuntu3~21.04.1)
gnome-shell-common (3.38.4-1ubuntu3~21.04.1)
gnome-shell-extension-prefs (3.38.4-1ubuntu3~21.04.1)

After reboot I've activated calendar sync with my google account and the reported problem is gone. I also check that the calendar sync worked as expected.

So the bug seem to be fixed. Thanks and best regards.

The verification of the Stable Release Update for gnome-shell has completed successfully and the package is now being released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

This still affects me on my Pinebook Pro. Are there any plans to backport this to focal?

It's coming, but at what speed I don't know. It's already committed for the next update (although that was true before the last update and someone forgot to keep git in sync with uploads for focal):

Hello shine, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gnome-shell into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/3.36.9-0ubuntu0.20.04.3 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

I think the relevant test case here is whether there are any crashes:

3.36.9-0ubuntu0.20.04.2 - 2878 crashes
3.36.9-0ubuntu0.20.04.3 - 0 crashes

So that's almost good enough. We probably just need someone to try custom calendars in 20.04 like the test case mentions, in case of any regressions.

Test on Dell OptiPlex 7400 with gnome-shell 3.36.9-0ubuntu0.20.04.3
- login the online account and grant access of calendar
- check the the calendar in the notification panel, the events look fine without any issue.
