Public bug reported:

We'd like to update glib2.0 using the GNOME MRE.

[ Description ]

Upstream have released a new stable, fixing some bugs.

  * New upstream stable release, fixing bugs
    + gobject: try to link with -Wl,-z,nodelete to prevent unloading
    + g_file_copy: Don't set GError when we intend to ignore errors

[ QA ]

Under the terms of the MRE, you can assume the bugs are fixed. I suggest
installing the update and then using your system as normal for the 10
day verification time.

[ Regression potential ]

One of the fixes could be bad. This is the first stable in this series
and is a new release, so hasn't had much testing on its own, even if all
of the fixes are in the unstable release.
