Bug#1125186: gnome-builder: shortcuts broken

[Juan Pablo Ugarte]

Hi, sorry I'm not really familiar with Debian issue mailing, I sent a new
message directly instead of replying.

Anyways I ran it with gdb to see the value of the search path and it seems
correct.


Thread 1 "gnome-builder" hit Breakpoint 1,
gi_repository_prepend_search_path (repository=0x555555c1bf20
[GIRepository],
    directory=directory at entry=0x555555876a68
"/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gnome-builder/girepository-1.0")
    at ../../../girepository/girepository.c:391
⚠️ warning: 391 ../../../girepository/girepository.c: No such file or
directory
(gdb) c
Continuing.
10:23:40.3510                       ide-shortcut-bundle[ 19413]: CRITICAL:
Failed to eval keybindings.gsl: Typelib file for namespace 'Ide' (any
version) not found

As you can see the call is made before the warning, so the next thing to
check would be the return value of ide_get_gir_repository () and the code
that actually uses the Ide namespace
