This bug report is a Feature Freeze Exception request on behalf of the
Ubuntu Budgie team for magpie v0.9.3 (updated from v0.9.2) which I have
released on behalf of the buddiesofbudgie upstream project:
https://github.com/BuddiesOfBudgie/magpie/releases/tag/v0.9.3

changelog:
  * New upstream microrelease
    - Remove toggle-shaded keyboard shortcut binding and associated code;
      GNOME 45 has removed the associated schema since the toggle-shaded was
      considered broken capability (LP: #2031620)
    - Add COGL default_driver option to allow certain architectures to be
      built with a specific driver name. It is recommended to leave this as
      the default 'auto' for most architectures.
  * Drop meson-add-back-default_driver-option.patch since the COGL
    default_driver option this has been incorporated in this release
  * backport fractional scaling from lunar (LP: #2031908)
    0001-Merge-existing-x11-fractional-scaling-patch.patch
  * Packaging changes
    - d/libmagpie-0-0.symbols update for shade removal; no budgie components
      use this option so no need to bump the ABI

>From a Ubuntu archive point of view this release is key to support the
GNOME 45 transition. Specifically GNOME 45 gsettings-desktop-schemas
removes a key that the existing magpie depends upon
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/magpie/+bug/2031620).  This
causes the budgie window manager to crash.

>From a Ubuntu Budgie point of view this release resolves a regression
where magpie in ubuntu does not have the lunar fractional scaling
capabilities that lunar budgie users can use
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/magpie/+bug/2031908).  This
is resolved by backporting the lunar mutter fractional scaling patch

I/we also commit to fixing any issue(s) that might be inadvertently
introduced with this update.
