** Description changed:

  [Availability]
  The package jpeg-xl is already in Ubuntu universe.
  The package jpeg-xl build for the architectures it is designed to work on.
  It currently builds and works for all Ubuntu architectures
  Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jpeg-xl
  
  [Rationale]
  - The packages libjxl-gdk-pixbuf and libjxl0.9 (soon to have a soname bump to 
libjxl0.10) are required in Ubuntu main to enable JPEG XL files to be used as a 
desktop wallpaper and to be viewable in GNOME-ish apps like eog and shotwell
  - The package libjxl-gdk-pixbuf will generally be useful for a large part of 
our user base
  - The binary package libjxl-gdk-pixbuf needs to be in main to achieve JPEG XL 
support
  
  - It would be great and useful to community/processes to have the
  package jpeg-xl in Ubuntu main, but there is no definitive deadline.
  
  [Security]
  - Had multiple security issues in the past
  - https://ubuntu.com/security/cve?package=jpeg-xl
  - https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/jpeg-xl
  + Debian has marked the 2 2023 CVEs as "no-dsa (minor issue)
  + The remaining needs-triage bug in Ubuntu's tracker, CVE-2021-36691, has 
been marked by Debian as "negligible security impact"
  
  - no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
  - no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
  - Packages do not install services, timers or recurring jobs
  - Packages do not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
  - Packages do not expose any external endpoints
  - Packages do not contain extensions to security-sensitive software (filters, 
scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...)
  
  [Quality assurance - function/usage]
  - The package works well right after install
  
  [Quality assurance - maintenance]
  - The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream and does not have 
too many, long-term & critical, open bugs
  - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jpeg-xl/
  - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=jpeg-xl
  - Upstream's bug tracker https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/issues
  
  - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support
  
  [Quality assurance - testing]
  - The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails it makes the build 
fail, link to build log https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jpeg-xl/0.9.2-9
  
  - The package runs an autopkgtest, and is currently passing on all 
architectures except for s390x.
  - s390x is skipped (shows as "neutral") which is acceptable since the 
intended use of jpeg-xl is on desktops and s390x is not a desktop architecture.
  
  https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/jpeg-xl
  
  - The package does have not failing autopkgtests right now
  
  [Quality assurance - packaging]
  - debian/watch is present and works
  - debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field
  
  - Lintian overrides are present, but ok because this was affected by the
  t64 transition
  
  - This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages.
  - This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies
  
  - The package will be installed by default, but does not ask debconf
  questions
  
  - Packaging and build is easy, link to debian/rules
  
https://salsa.debian.org/debian-phototools-team/libjxl/-/blob/master/debian/rules
  
  [UI standards]
  - Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation or .desktop 
file)
  
  [Dependencies]
  - There are further dependencies that are not yet in main, MIR for them is at
  - highway https://launchpad.net/bugs/2070807
- - openexr https://launchpad.net/bugs/2071294
- - (openexr turns depends on imath)
  
  [Standards compliance]
  - This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy
  
  [Maintenance/Owner]
  - The owning team will be Ubuntu Desktop (~desktop-packages) and I have their 
acknowledgement for that commitment
  
  - This does not use static builds
  - This does not use vendored code
  - This package is not rust based
  
  - The package has been built within the last 3 months in the archive
  - Build link on launchpad: 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jpeg-xl/0.9.2-9
  
  [Background information]
  - The Package description explains the package well
  - Upstream Name is libjxl
  - Link to upstream project https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl
  - Some additional binary packages have no reverse dependencies and can remain 
in universe:
  + libjpegxl-java
  + libjxl-devtools
  + libjxl-tools
  
- - Before version 0.9, the gdk-pixbuf was not enabled in Debian or Ubuntu
- because it required skcms which is not available in Debian or Ubuntu;
- with version 0.9, the plugin was buildable with lcms2 which is in Ubuntu
- main. It is not feasible to backport this to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS which only
- has version 0.7.
+ - Before version 0.9, the gdk-pixbuf loader was not enabled in Debian or
+ Ubuntu because it required skcms which is not available in Debian or
+ Ubuntu; with version 0.9, the loader was buildable with lcms2 which is
+ in Ubuntu main. It is not feasible to backport this to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
+ which only has version 0.7.
+ 
+ - A gdk-pixbuf loader is required for an image format to be used as a
+ desktop wallpaper and to be viewable in GNOME-ish apps like eog and
+ shotwell
  
  - GNOME 46 (released in early 2024) switched its default desktop
  wallpaper to JPEG XL
