Please update the gnome-remote-desktop package in trixie to be
able to work with freerdp3 >= 3.25, with the following change
included:

https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-remote-desktop/-/commit/2afaced792b91874eb71dc0d0338d295f844601c

It does not affect the actual binary package in any way, but allows to build
build-time tests with a more recent version of freerdp.

The plan is to update freerdp in trixie to a current upstream version,
due to a huge amount of (security or not) fixes in there since the last
version available in trixie.  And with the updated freerdp, g-r-d wont
be buildable anymore.

Maybe it's a good idea to include fix #1148894 (CVE-2026-96541) for trixie
too, when doing an update.

Control: severity -1 important
fix for Debian 13 but I haven't found time for.

I pushed proposed packaging to
https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-remote-desktop/-/merge_requests/28

I gave you Salsa permissions for gnome-remote-desktop.

This can help with testing the update:

When I last tested in Debian Testing, Remote Logon wasn't working. I
only saw a black screen.

Thank you,
