Ubuntu 24.10 is released in October and will mark the 20th anniversary of Ubuntu. So it’s only fitting that the release offer a few ‘easter eggs’ in honour if its past.
Ubuntu 24.10 includes the GNOME 47 desktop, and among the new features in GNOME 47 is accent colour support.
But with upstream GNOME adding accent colour support officially, Ubuntu doesn’t need to patch it in, so will migrate to the “official” approach (albeit retaining most, though not all, of the Yaru accent colour palette, defaulting to orange as one would expect).
For Ubuntu 24.10, ‘warty brown’ will be added to the pool of accent colours you can pick from, with the colour being applied to UI elements such as toggles, switches, and hovers, and a number of Yaru icons, including folders.
Ubuntu developers also add “support for playing a startup sound” to GNOME Shell 47, and include the ”warty startup sound” in the Yaru sounds package for when the option is enabled.
