This bug was fixed in the package gst-plugins-good1.0 - 1.28.0-1ubuntu3
---------------
gst-plugins-good1.0 (1.28.0-1ubuntu3) resolute; urgency=medium
* Drop jpegformat, camerasrcbin, and gstphotography.
- Vendoring these -bad plugins into -good has been problematic for
a number of years. It's not only -good that is vendoring -bad
plugins in Ubuntu, but also packages like GTK4 (for the
GStreamer backend).
- It would be more maintainable for the distribution to introduce
a -bad plugin split wherein a subset of needed -bad plugins are
within the main repository, so that main dependents need not
vendor anything and instead can rely on a package tracking them.
- This will help us keep this subset of plugins up-to-date with
upstream. For instance, jpegparse was stuck at version 1.18,
since it was burdensome to update it beyond 1.21.1 (required
bringing codecparsers over with it.) (LP: #2089260)
- The pkgconfig patch needed for gstphotography has also been
removed as part of this change.
* Recommend gstreamer1.0-plugins-extra. (LP: #2121050)
- To avoid breaking packages that depend on earlier versions of
gst-plugins-good1.0, in which packaging hacks were made to
incorporate some -bad plugins. These are going to be moved to
an -extra package.
