     # The submodule contains glaxnimate code, since MLT uses internally some functions defined in glaxnimate.
     # Since glaxnimate is not available as a library upstream, we cannot remove for now this dependency on
     # submodules until upstream exports glaxnimate as a library: https://gitlab.com/mattbas/glaxnimate/-/issues/545
