lbglib-json in Jessie

[Riccardo (Jack) Lucchetti]

Hi all,

gretl developer here. We found that libglib-json 1.0.2 (which is the 
version still present in Jessie) is affected by a relatively nasty bug; 
see commit 1f6668a9534c01523361075dad290c0dc49d7623 in

http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/GNOME/sources/json-glib/1.0/json-glib-1.0.4.changes

I personally was able to get around the problem quite easily by installing 
on the affected machine the Stretch version (1.2.6), which required just 
another upgrade (gir1.2-json to 2.0.1). However, since apparently the bug 
was fixed in 1.0.4, it could be a good idea to upgrade the Jessie version 
at least to that version.

Thanks,
