Hi Simon et al,

gio-2.0.pc is broken again. This is a revival of #982213. Let me recap.

We figured that glib-compile-schemas is an architecture-independent
tool. Yet, glib installs it for multiple architectures (and I don't
quite recall why) with /usr/bin/glib-compile-schemas being a symlink to
the native one. Originally, gio-2.0.pc referenced this. Then, a Debian
patch made it reference the one from libglib2.0-0, which happened to
break cross compilation of stuff. Then I opened #982213 and we agreed to
revert that patch. Now the revert has been reverted, but it seems it was
reverted upstream. Can we revert that again? Would you be able to
provide more context here than I have?

Thanks in advance

Helmut
