Re: Loupe 48 in trixie?

Hi all,

as you probably know, Loupe is the new default image viewer in GNOME (and will be so in trixie). Upstream just released 48.beta [0] which has long-desired functionality to crop and rotate images in the default GNOME image viewer. Since 48 (in comparison to previous releases) does not mean a new gtk-rs version (since uptream agreed to longer release cycles) we could make an exception for loupe and ship 48 with trixie. It needs a few package updates, but those are really self-contained (rust packages for loupes' image functionality).

I intend to stage all in experimental (time permitting).
If you agree I would then upload it to unstable so it'll be part of trixie. This would bring some basic editing for users and be low-risk imo.

Hi all,

snapshot 48.beta (and pending a build) loupe 48-beta are now available in experimental. This brings the following new features:
- snapshot: QR code scanning is now possible
- loupe: basic image editing is now available (cropping/flipping)
As I am kinda busy currently and will likely not have time soon (~1 or two weeks) to upload everything coordinated to unstable (since it involves ~30 rust packages, too) I'd appreciate testing those two packages and reporting any bugs you find.

best,

werdahias
