Source: glib2.0
Version: 2.38.2-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

# GLib-FATAL-WARNING: In call to g_spawn_sync(), exit status of a child process was requested but ECHILD was received by waitpid(). Most likely the process is ignoring SIGCHLD, or some other thread is invoking waitpid() with a nonpositive first argument; either behavior can break applications that use g_spawn_sync either directly or indirectly.
