Hi,    For Shoebot we use python with gi.repository, along with main_iteration 
+ custom drawing with cairocffi, however on the most recent OSX, when I try and 
run, nothing is rendered - could this be the same / a similar issue ?

Looks somewhat obscure and low-level.


The conditions that led to use needing to do this are obscure. The fix is 
definitely low level. But the issue is a design that landed in GTK+ some years 
ago (possibly as many as 10 years ago), and is fundamentally problematic. 
Replacing a call to some variant of poll() with a call into the native 
windowing system's own event loop is ... well, different :)
 

I think on bugzilla it would have more chances to be read by someone
interested to improve the quartz support in the future. When doing a
complete overhaul, looking at the existing reported bugs seems a good
thing to do.


I would say that there is a 90% chance that I will be person to reimplement 
things. I wasn't looking so much for someone to fix it for me, but to see how 
much moral support I might raise :)
