Package: pygobject
Version: 2.21.4+is.2.21.3-1
Severity: serious
Justification: violates section 4.2 of policy
The current glib build-dep for pyobject is libglib2.0-dev (>= 2.22.4).
With glib 2.24, the build works just fine, but I'm seeing build
failures on porter boxes where libglib2.0-dev is out of date (and thus
2.22 is still being pulled in.
Here's one where glib is at 2.24:
https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=pygobject;ver=2.21.4%2Bis.2.21.3-1~bpo50%2B1;arch=powerpc;stamp=1294418053
Here's one where glib hasn't caught up yet, and is still at 2.22:
https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=pygobject;ver=2.21.4%2Bis.2.21.3-1~bpo50%2B1;arch=i386;stamp=1294422021
The build-dep should be bumped to be libglib2.0-dev (>= 2.24).
I'm leaving off the squeeze-ignore tag for now (the release team can
decide that), as though I noticed this while doing a lenny backport,
it has very little to do w/ lenny; it's something that could easily
affect squeeze given an architecture with buildds that are trying to
catch up.
