Description Carlos Garnacho 2017-05-23 16:48:06 UTC 
Now that mutter will properly sync the pointer state on stage relayouts (bug #755164), there's some places where these calls are just doing duplicated work, as pointed out by Rui in comment #20 there.

I'll be investigating these individually and attaching patches.
Comment 1 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 14:09:23 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of  gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
