Please additionally report this issue to the cinnamon maintainers in Debian and upstream. We were aware of one crash triggered by the new pygobject version, but it was determined to be a downstream issue. Maybe the Cinnamon bug has a similar cause. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pygobject/-/work_items/764 We can temporarily hold the new pygobject in Unstable to allow maintainers time to fix the issue so I upgraded this bug to RC. We prefer that the delay last days instead of weeks though. On behalf of the Debian GNOME team, Jeremy Bícha
