(In case I wasn't clear enough, the pygobject bug would have been fixed 
by proceeding with this transition, even if we had taken no action in 
pygobject itself - the regression was caused by preparations for this 
transition, but it's only a regression with GLib 2.84 or older, and 
goes away when we have 2.86.)

* glib2.0 2.86.0-5 uploaded
* gnome-shell 48.5-3 uploaded
* gnome-menus 3.36.0-5 uploaded
* glib-d bug https://bugs.debian.org/1115332 bumped to serious

We can close this when the new glib2.0 reaches testing.

The three packages should all migrate together in practice: there are 
versioned Depends/Breaks. Please add whatever hints are appropriate if 
the transition software can't figure it out.
