Let's drop the GNOME version in the snap name, which has been a lie in previous SDKs: we don't stick to the GNOME package versions from the Ubuntu base, but instead we keep dependencies up-to-date with every GNOME release until we get a new SDK with the next snap base.
Allows running /usr/bin/python3 with modules built from source, such as meson and gi.repository, which get installed into $CRAFT_STAGE instead.
In the deb packages these are generated at postinst time through update-alternatives. Those scriptlets are not run by snapcraft, so we need to generate the symlinks on our own.
This is unnecessary since setting PYTHONPATH
The automake build is broken against the new libtoolize
This is unused and currently breaks the build, so let's just drop it
pcre3 is not available in Ubuntu 26.04, so this was breaking the build. It is unused so just drop it.
All debs should be staged in the `debs` part, which has logic to resolve conflicts with source-compiled parts. Furtermore, staging debs here might cause the install of unwanted dependencies such as python3, which then breaks the python search path.
The execstack tool is no longer packaged in Ubuntu 26.04. I'm not sure this step is still necessary; if it turns out to be we'll have to find a different tool.
Updates all the parts to their latest versions, with the exception of: libadwaita: since it requires several patches, a different PR will be prepared. gdk-pixbuf: because I don't know if we will have trouble with the sandboxed loaders.
The libffi build system is installing in the wrong directory unless we specify --disable-multi-os-directory. Remove the libffi deb since we're building from source.
Add the required dependencies to run the HEIF/AVIF loaders. Also drop the webp and rsvg pixbuf loaders since glycin already includes those. Allow $GDK_PIXBUF_PATH to hold no external loader modules, since glycin is built-in and we have no other third party loaders. Closes: ubuntu#356
