Bug Description

Impact
------
There was a new bugfix release in the stable 46 series.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/compare/46.0...46.1

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/releases/46.1

Test Case 1
-----------
Install the update.
Make sure that gnome-control-center continues to run well.

Test Case 2
-----------
Install gnome-session
Log out.
Click your name on the login screen.
Click the gear in the bottom right corner and choose GNOME.
Finish logging in.
Make sure that gnome-control-center continues to run well.

This test case is because some of our Ubuntu customizations only show in the Ubuntu session, not other sessions like vanilla GNOME.

Test Case 3
-----------
Open gnome-control-center
Click the last item in the left sidebar named About
Click Device Name.
Type in a different name for your computer.
Press Enter.
The Rename Device dialog should close and your new computer name should take effect.

What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
gnome-control-center is used by Ubuntu Desktop and Edubuntu.
It is a critical app for viewing and changing a huge variety of settings for these desktops.

gnome-control-center is part of GNOME Core and has a microrelease exception for Ubuntu stable release updates.
