Public bug reported: This is a draft to provide the Ubuntu Release Team with early notice of a likely Feature Freeze Exception for Ubuntu 25.04.
Impact ====== The Ubuntu Desktop Team would like to include support for the jpeg-xl format in the default install. Why This Wasn't Done Sooner ========================== The required MIR was filed during the Ubuntu 24.10 cycle but it has been waiting on review by the Ubuntu Security Team. https://launchpad.net/bugs/2070882 Affected Packages ================= webkit2gtk will be rebuilt with support for jpeg-xl. The diff (ignore the changelog entry) is https://salsa.debian.org/webkit-team/webkit/-/commit/1defdbfc89f07 eog, gnome-control-center, and shotwell will move libjxl-gdk-pixbuf from Suggests to Depends. (This is only a runtime dependency so I don't think you need build logs and the diff is trivial) All of these changes were previously done in Debian, but Ubuntu is carrying a delta to revert them for Ubuntu. (All of these packages have other Ubuntu-specific changes.) ** Affects: jpeg-xl (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: plucky -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to jpeg-xl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2099691 Title: [draft] FFe: include jpeg-xl in Ubuntu Desktop by default Status in jpeg-xl package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This is a draft to provide the Ubuntu Release Team with early notice of a likely Feature Freeze Exception for Ubuntu 25.04.
