We already (just) have version 2.36.0 in Cauldron thanks to ns80, so it seems sensible to assign this update to you.

Comment 3 Thomas Andrews 2022-04-12 20:38:45 CEST
Tested in a Gnome Vbox guest. No installation issues.

Referred to bug 30018 and Bug 30064 for tests:

$ zenity --calendar  Used the mouse to select a date, which was reported back to the command line.

Ran Atril and loaded a pdf, looked OK

Ran Evolution and Epiphany, both GUIs came up normally.

Looks OK in Gnome.

Comment 4 Thomas Andrews 2022-04-12 20:51:35 CEST
Tested with a Plasma install on real 64-bit hardware. No installation issues.

This install does not include Evolution or Epiphany, but the zenity calendar and Atril both work OK.

Giving this a 64-bit OK, and validating. Advisory in Comment 2.
