Released yesterday was Glycin 2.1 Alpha that brings a number of component updates and adds XPM and XBM support to the image-rs code. X PixMap (XPM) was for icon pixmaps under the X Window System and X BitMap (XBM) for cursor and icon bitmaps with X GUIs as the successor to XPM.
As noted with This Week in GNOME , the XPM and XBM formats were the last unsandboxed image loader in use on Fedora Linux. Now that handling image loading for XPM/XBM can be handled by the Rust-based sandboxed Glycin, it can allow for a safer and more universal experience on Fedora moving forward. Glycin is also used by a variety of GNOME apps such as Loupe, Shortwave, Camera, Fractal, and others.
