This added condition means supervisor_start_stop_movie.wbt and robot_window_html.wbt will not be tested at all on Linux. We should check if we can test it at least for one version of Ubuntu

Yes, you are right, sorry for the oversight. I reverted the changes, so the test "test suite" only performs on Ubuntu 22.04. It passes the test as expected.

Here we are missing some libraries. We discussed them, but just leaving a note

I believe these libraries are related to the tar distribution. It would be good to test the tar distribution on a clean Ubuntu 24.04

Additional context
This update transitions Webots to the latest supported LTS versions of Ubuntu. While dropping 20.04, the focus is on enhancing compatibility and functionality for users adopting Ubuntu 24.04. This ensures alignment with modern software ecosystems and provides access to newer libraries and features.
The packages: "libHalf-2_5.so.25", "libIexMath-2_5.so.25" and "libIlmImf-2_5.so.25" are missing on Ubuntu 24.04 but the tests are passing.
