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
