Hi John,

Great!

I run trixie on amd64 with GNOME 48 and a tiny amount of updated packages from 
forky.

Until a few hours ago, I thought I would be able to get the necessary packages 
from Debian experimental once the arithmetic-JPEG decoder has arrived there. 
Now, I discovered that a new loupe and a new glycin-loaders already require 
upgrading GNOME from 48 to 50.  This opens yet another can of worms for me, as 
I am unsure whether GNOME 50 would run on my machine. In the worst case, I 
might need to get a new machine or switch from GNOME to another desktop 
environment, such as KDE Plasma, XFCE, Mate, Cinnamon, or LXQt.

Therefore, if you have a choice of how to build glycin-loaders for the purpose 
of testing viewing arithmetic-coded JPEGs, please feel free to build a package 
what works in trixie on amd64. If you can't, feel free to go for forky on amd64.

I also wonder whether you (or anyone else) might like to reopen this Debian bug 
report #1127449.

Gratefully,
Albert
