Bug Description

Impact
------
There are only 3 changes from Ubuntu's gnome-sushi 41.1 to 42.0: 2 bugfixes that we really want and a new translation.

In other words, this is equivalent to a bugfix point release but the new version number was probably just used for convenience.

Test Case
---------
Test cases for one of the bugfixes is at LP: #1971545

For the other:
1. Install the update
2. Close the file browser if it's open
3. Open the Files app
4. Connect to a remote server. I suggest Google Drive but SFTP is another good option. For Google Drive, you can use Online Accounts in the system Settings app to enable it. Then it will show the remote server in the left sidebar labeled with your Google email address.
For SFTP, you'll need to click Other Locations and enter the sftp address in the Connect to Server box on the bottom of the window.
5. Select a PDF file and press the spacebar to preview it

You should see a preview of the contents of the PDF

What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
Now that the previewer can preview more files like it's supposed to (and used to in older versions), a bug in one of the viewers could use all your spare CPU.

gnome-sushi is not installed by default for any official Ubuntu flavor. It is installed by vanilla-gnome-desktop (an alternative metapackage leftover from the Ubuntu GNOME project).

gnome-sushi is part of core GNOME and falls under the microrelease exception

Hello Jeremy, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gnome-sushi into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-sushi/42.0-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

I enabled -proposed and updated gnome-sushi to version 42.0-0ubuntu1.

I connected to both Google Drive and another PC on my local network and successfully previewed files of type: .sh, .txt, .png, .jpg and .json. I saw syntax highlighting where applicable. .pdf files viewed another PC displayed immediately but from Google Drive were very slow to load (probably due their size) but they did display eventually.
