As it is written in the book, the patch is required even with --disable-introspection. Pygobject compiles without the patch with the above option, and then pygtk-2.24.0 which depends on it installs ok.
Exfalso is a tag editor that I use, part of quodlibet, a gtk based media player written in python which depends on pygobject. The patch makes it's window blank writing in the log: Error in sys.excepthook: RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object Works fine without it. Which package in the book that depends on pygobject brakes without the patch?
