Hello fellow developers, This morning I uploaded glib 2.35.4 to raring-proposed, which will bring us from the last stable release for GNOME 3.6 to the current development series, as agreed on [1] . It is currently (manually) blocked from migrating to raring until we get, review, and fix all the autopkgtest results of reverse dependencies with the new glib version.
This is a heads-up about the most visible change that you will see
during build: g_type_init() has been deprecated, it is not necessary
to call this any more. So if you have a project with overzealous
deprecation checks (such as using -Werror), you will have to fix your
project/package to build with glib 2.35.x. Even if not, you might want
to do it to avoid warnings.
If you bump the build dep up to >= 2.35, you can just drop
g_type_init(). Otherwise, it is recommended to conditionalize it like
#if !defined(GLIB_VERSION_2_36)
g_type_init();
#endif
Thanks,
Martin
