| Subj: Glycin thumbnailers in Debian |
From: werdahias@riseup.net This is a MIME formatted message with attachments. Use a MIME-compliant client to view it properly. Hi all, glycin in 2.x has the option to build a thumbnailer [0]. In addition, gdk-pixbuf now has the option to build its thumbnailer with libglycin [1]. libglycin is a C library compiled from Rust (and src:glycin). I think both are things we want to enable since the rust code is memory safe. I will definitely enable the glycin-own thumbnailer. Regarding gdk-pixbufs thumbnailer, I would like to hear the teams' opinions on that. This could be enabled only conditionally on the release arches for the time being. Upstream noted the only downside are the loaders being Linux-only since they rely on libseccomp.
