Dear GIMP experts,

I am having troubles to compile the dependencies required to build the latest 
GEGL/GIMP versions from GIT.

The problem I am facing is the following:

* on one hand, GEGL requires GLIB > 2.44.0

* on the other hand, PyGTK (needed to have python support in GIMP) wants 
pygobject-2.0, whose latest version I could find is 2.28.6
However, this version must be compiled against a gobject-introspection version 
prior to this commit: 
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2011-August/msg03069.html 
<https://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2011-August/msg03069.html> 
(Deprecate ErrorDomain), otherwise one gets compilation errors due to undefined 
enum values. So this brings me to 1.29.16 as the latest usable 
gobject-introspection version (at least according to release dates, see 
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gobject-introspection/1.29/ 
<http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gobject-introspection/1.29/>).
However, gobject-introspection-1.29.16 cannot be compiled against glib-2.44.0 
because of g_module_* functions having been moved into a sport library, which 
gobject-introspection-1.29.16 is not linking…

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a recommended set of library versions for 
compiling GIMP? Or should I patch object-introspection to add the missing glib 
library?

Thanks a lot in advance!
