Morning, Adam. Not sure if this is helpful, but whilst attempting to load/view the new wallpapers, they actually crashed GIMP. See bug report here. [Bug 2506335] New: GIMP crashed with a fatal error: fatal error: Segmentation fault The new GIMP is slow and labored, but this is the first time I've seen it crash hard. Dan

f45-backgrounds available

The *f45-backgrounds* package [1] is now available in Rawhide, ready for the Fedora 45 release. One of the most notable changes is that the *“Time of Day”* animated wallpaper has been split out of the GNOME and MATE background packages into dedicated sub-packages: * *f45-backgrounds-gnome-time-of-day* * *f45-backgrounds-mate-time-of-day* This change provides a cleaner and more consistent wallpaper selection experience in the *Appearance* section of Fedora Workstation and its derivatives, while making the optional animated wallpapers available only to users who want them. To enable the feature, simply install the appropriate *Time of Day* package for your desktop environment. Additionally, as a reminder, the default Fedora 45 wallpaper includes *wide-gamut color support*, delivering richer and more accurate colors on displays that support wide color gamuts.
