[Pkg-ayatana-devel] Bug#1118514: gir1.2-unity-7.0: please install GObject-Introspection typelibs to /usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/girepository-1.0

Package: gir1.2-unity-7.0
Version: 7.1.4+19.04.20190319-6.1
Severity: normal
User: pkg-gnome-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: usr-lib-girepository-1.0

gir1.2-unity-7.0 installs Unity-7.0.typelib and UnityExtras-7.0.typelib 
into /usr/lib/girepository-1.0/.

This is a legacy location, and is only searched because we apply a 
Debian-specific patch to libgirepository. Instead, please install the 
typelib files into /usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/girepository-1.0.

When all of the 6 remaining packages that use the legacy location have 
been fixed, we will be able to stop patching libgirepository.

Thanks,
    smcv
