Package: release.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:geocode-glib

Please unblock package geocode-glib

[ Reason ]
This update fixes geolocation in the Initial Setup & GNOME Clocks
apps, perhaps others.

Also, the -common package is now installed by the library which
includes icons that could be used by some apps using the API.

[ Impact ]
Although Initial Setup is included by default (for the first time) in
Debian GNOME Bookworm, the location page is unlikely to be seen
since it is only used in New User mode. To get to New User mode
requires a system without any regular users configured, which is not
typical for Desktop installs of Debian.

GNOME Clocks is included by default and geolocation is used trivially
to show a location for the local clock.

[ Tests ]
The upstream test suite was successfully run as build tests and as
installed tests using autopkgtest.

I tested that geolocation now works for me with both Clocks and Initial Setup.

[ Risks ]

[ Checklist ]
  [X] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [X] attach debdiff against the package in testing

unblock geocode-glib/3.26.3-6

Thank you,
