GNOME Shell to Finally Show an OSD Pop-up When Changing Volume with Mouse Wheel

We’ll start with the GNOME Shell 3.24.3 update, which appears to be a minor maintenance release fixing a few bugs and implementing tablet rings/strips configuration. However, it looks like it finally fixes that annoying issue blocking clicks in the shutdown dialog, so we recommend installing it as soon as possible. On the other hand, the GNOME Shell 3.25.4 development release adds quite a bunch of changes, starting with the ability to display OSD volume notifications when changing the volume with the mouse wheel (finally!), and continuing with support for the Meson build system, which most of the apps from the GNOME Stack received.
