Package: libglibmm-2.4-dev
Version: 2.54.1-3
Severity: normal

There is a typo in the glibmm/threads.h header file, a missing & in the
GPrivate::gobj() method.

It has so far not caused that many issues, but if gcc-8 is used for
compiling the typo starts generating FTBFS errors for software
including the header, also if the GPrivate::gobj() is not used.

The bug is fixed upstream in the 2.54 branch:

https://github.com/GNOME/glibmm/commit/37d57ae

Patch attached (this is the patch used in Fedora).
