Public bug reported:

[Impact]

 * The version of carla in jammy is very outdated and buggy and is quite
difficult to support and does not contain necessary python 3.10 fixes.
We have attempted to SRU newer upstream versions at the request of the
upstream but were met with the need to provide a microrelease exception,
which proved difficult to justify. Additionally, this is several point
releases newer and contains too many changes to justify an SRU.

* We have 2.5.4 in a PPA but users don't always know where to get it.
This would make it easier to get the newer version.

* This version contains too many new features to justify a SRU but are
relevant to users. For instance, this version contains a newer embedded
juce implementation and also contains better python 3.10 support and
numerous Qt fixes.

[Scope]

 * Package will backport from Lunar (Future 23.04)

 * Package will backport to Jammy (22.04 LTS)

[Other Information]

* Package requires no newer libraries to function, so no development
libraries need to be backported.
