Package: python3-gi
Version: 3.57.0-2
Severity: important
Hey.
Since upgrading to 3.57.0-2, whenever I lock cinnamon via cinnamon-screensaver,
and then unlock it,... it crashes after entering the password, apparently
showing some built-in fallback (which still keeps X locked), and instructs one
to go to th kernel console, log in and unlock via cinnamon-unlock-desktop).
At the same time I get a segfault:

Downgrading python3-gi to 3.56.3-2 fixes the issue.
Thanks,
Chris.
