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.

Let me know what you think.

best,

werdahias
