I'm bundling the webkit2gtk change with the new webkitgtk 2.48.1 update. The webkitgtk updates routinely get announced as security updates a few days later and the Ubuntu Security Team then packages the update for Ubuntu (for about the first 3 years of the life of an Ubuntu LTS).

Why This Wasn't Done Sooner ========================== The required MIR was filed during the Ubuntu 24.10 cycle but it had been waiting on review by the Ubuntu Security Team. The MIR is approved now. 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 webkit2gtk takes about 3 days to build on riscv64. Once in a while, the build fails and it may take a little longer. 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.)
