Thanks. This is IMO much better. I looked at the diff and almost
everything in it is covered by your changelog entries. However:
* document-portal/xdp-dbus.c was generated by a version of
gdbus-codegen which seems to be only in Debian experimental. !
* gtk-doc.make has some noise (which seems to be just whitespace
changes but which is a bit hard to review as-is)
This is a bit odd. Are these generated files even though they are in
the source package ? Is it possible to exclude these updates
somehow ?
(FTR: I have no other concerns.)

If I were the release team I would prefer not to take that unless we
had to.

Jolly good.
Thanks,
