** Description changed: Reason ====== Ubuntu Desktop is stuck at gnome-remote-desktop 48 Alpha because newer versions require libva2. Ubuntu Desktop wants to ship gnome-remote-desktop 48.0 for Ubuntu 25.04 Impact ====== As part of the Main Inclusion Review, I needed to make 2 late changes: 1. Disable the trace feature. This appears to be unused and its impact is negligible. 2. libva2 Recommends va-driver-all. It is not allowed for a package in main to have Depends or Recommends on a package in universe. Ubuntu Desktop wants to keep va-driver-all in Universe to limit the scope of this MIR to what is achievable and needed now. Therefore, we are demoting va-driver-all to Suggests. This affects every single Ubuntu Desktop Flavor which will now need to manually add va-driver-all to their seeds and rebuild their metapackages to keep the current situation. va-driver-all (from libva) is seeded in: - edubuntu: daily-live, daily-preinstalled - kubuntu: daily-live - lubuntu: daily-live - ubuntu-budgie: daily-live - ubuntu-mate: daily-live - ubuntu-unity: daily-live - ubuntucinnamon: daily-live - ubuntukylin: daily-live - ubuntustudio: daily-live - xubuntu: daily-live, daily-minimal + edubuntu: daily-live, daily-preinstalled + kubuntu: daily-live + lubuntu: daily-live + ubuntu-budgie: daily-live + ubuntu-mate: daily-live + ubuntu-unity: daily-live + ubuntucinnamon: daily-live + ubuntukylin: daily-live + ubuntustudio: daily-live + xubuntu: daily-live, daily-minimal If this FFe is approved, I will work with all the Ubuntu Desktop flavors to ensure this work is completed quickly. Testing Story ============= gnome-remote-desktop's new "zero copy rendering" feature that requires the new libva2 dependency is actually still hidden behind a debug flag. Therefore, there isn't really a change in gnome-remote-desktop for end users. Background ========== The MIR was filed as LP: #2097800 . It needed to complete a Security review which was finished March 21. + + Diff + ==== + https://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/libva/-/compare/debian%2F2.22.0-3...ubuntu%2F2.22.0-3ubuntu1
