Bug Description

What Happens
------------
All the line art in the Multitasking panel doesn't show up. These are .svg files.

All the line art in the Mouse & Touchpad panels doesn't show up. These are .webm files.

Impact
------
Update March 29: Although gtk4 now recommends libgtk-4-media-gstreamer, that new binary package was still in Universe when the Ubuntu Desktop Beta images were built. Therefore, we need to have something else recommend or depend on libgtk-4-media-gstreamer to fix the mouse & touchpad panel for people who installed the Beta.

Since this feature is broken without that package, a Depends is more appropriate.

Other Info
----------
This is with a clean install of Ubuntu using the March 16 daily image and then updates applied.

The art did show on my primary computer which is also running the same version of gnome-control-center but is not a clean install and has many other packages installed.

Ok, easy...

We are not installing by default libgtk-4-media-gstreamer :(

That is not a g-c-c dependency as it should, nor is in main, so we'd need to include it?!

We've a workaround in https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gtk4/-/merge_requests/12 to include gstreamer player inside gtk so that we don't have to depend on gstreamer bad.

Also test packages in https://launchpad.net/~3v1n0/+archive/ubuntu/gtk4-gstreamer

This bug was fixed in the package gtk4 - 4.10.1+ds-2ubuntu1

---------------
gtk4 (4.10.1+ds-2ubuntu1) lunar; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - debian/tests:
      + include the memorytexture test in the flaky set, it has been unreliable
    - debian/control:
      + Build-Depend on dh-sequence-translations

gtk4 (4.10.1+ds-2) experimental; urgency=medium

  * debian/patches: Add gstreamer-player as subproject.
    It's used by gtk media to play videos, but it's currently in
    gstreamer-plugins-bad. By just including this library inside gtk we can
    avoid having dependency on gstreamer's bad set. (LP: #2011849)
  * debian/control: build-depend on libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev.
    Remove instead dependency on libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev
  * debian/rules: Also include gstreamer in udebs build.
    We include some gstreamer sources in gtk now, so better to provide some
    debug symbols too
  * debian/control: Recommends libgtk-4-media-gstreamer.
    Gtk media is considered a main element of gtk4, and not providing
    support for it, implies shipping a broken gtk (as upstream sentenced).
    So, let's recommend it. (LP: #2011849)
