Source: webp-pixbuf-loader
Version: 0.2.7-1
Severity: important

gdk-pixbuf in Experimental is now powered by glycin for Debian release
architectures. webp-pixbuf-loader's autopkgtest determinism-test is
broken with the new packaging because it depends on
/usr/bin/gdk-pixbuf-thumbnailer which is no longer provided on
architectures using glycin.

gdk-pixbuf with glycin supports webp without any additional loader or
thumbnailer. Therefore, webp-pixbuf-loader will probably only be
useful for ports, which are only for unstable and don't use
autopkgtests. I'm guessing that webp-pixbuf-loader will be practically
unmaintained upstream since almost nothing is using it any more. I
think we'd want to keep webp-pixbuf-loader out of Testing but it may
be helpful to keep it in Unstable as long as glycin isn't built on all
of Debian's ports.
