Does not work with gnome 42 Darkmode

[Swordling1]

I'm using the Fedora 36 beta and it does not work with the darkmode, and tweaks does not do it either.
it shows up in the lightmode though

I can confirm this on arch - it works only with light mode

it looks like dark mode pulls from a different setting value. so in org.gnome.desktop.background, in addition to picture-uri, picture-uri-dark needs to be set as well.

I can confirm this on Manjaro stable - it works only with light mode!

fwiw, you can work-around this by using dconf editor. if you use the app to apply the wallpaper, you can then open dconf editor and browse to org.gnome.desktop.background and copy the value from picture-uri (should end with wallpaper.xml) to picture-uri-dark

Pop!_Os 22.04 LTS is having the same issue, but this worked for me!

Can confirm that this fix works for Fedora 36.
Is there a more permanent fix for this planned in gnome?
