Bug Description

Impact
------

(see LP: #2013338 for nautilus 42.6 SRU for jammy, which should fix this)

When you try to change type of the archive that you'd like to create the drop-down list is clipped from the left, which contains most important information about the type that you try to select. At the same time archive creation window has a fixed size and cannot be resized.

See screenshot.

Upstream bug: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/2018

Test Case
---------

Log into "Ubuntu on Xorg".
Run nautilus, right-click on any file or folder, and select Compress...
In the newly opened Create Archive dialog, click on the file extension so that a popup menu is opened.
The expected behaviour is that the popup would display correctly and in full. With this bug present, the popup appears clipped/cropped. To reproduce the bug, might need to set the screen resolution low, or enable Accessibility > Seeing > Large Text from gnome-control-center.

Hello Mingun, or anyone else affected,

Accepted nautilus into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/1:42.6-0ubuntu1 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-jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-jammy. 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.

Hi all,

Apologies again for the slow reply, and thanks for accepting this into jammy-proposed.

I've tested and I can verify that nautilus 1:42.6-0ubuntu1 from jammy-proposed fixes the bug per the above test case, and otherwise nautilus seems to continue work well and as expected (I did some general testing: browsing to different directories, opening different kinds of files, checking file and folder properties and permissions, ...).

I experienced no problems or regressions, so I'm marking this as verification-done-jammy.
