Icecat 68.2.0-guix0-preview3 does not play H264/MP4
(address . bug-guix@gnu.org)

On latest master, with the following icecat package:
icecat 68.2.0-guix0-preview3 out /gnu/store/zqzhirykpqhay8n768aqqg4xplrmpfwz-icecat-68.2.0-guix0-preview3

On the console (via <f12>) I find the following message on websites with
embedded videos:

The video on this page can’t be played. Your system may not have the
required video codecs for: video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E mp4a.40.2

I believe this is the same issue reported in
https://bugs.gnu.org/38045, so I'm closing this new bug as a
duplicate.

My best guess is here:

Thanks,
