Title:
[FFe] move libva2 to Ubuntu main
Status in gnome-remote-desktop package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in libva package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
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
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.
