Changelog
pygobject (2.90.1-1) experimental; urgency=low
* debian/control.in: Update Vcs-* for experimental branch.
* New upstream release:
- New rewritten invoker is twice as fast and easier to extend and debug
- Complete break from static bindings so we may improve the core without
breaking legacy APIs
- Better type handling
- Parallel installable with PyGObject 2.28 for legacy binding support
(2.28 must be compiled with –disable-introspection)
- Fixed object array handling
- Added more overrides for PyGTK API emulation
- Support for function calling using keyword arguments
- GObject and GLib symbols can now have overrides
- All static bit removed or made private
- GVariants now work from callback returns
- Note that this now enforces a consistent move to the GI bindings. I. e.
you need to change all "import gobject" statements into "from
gi.repository import GObject", same for glib.
* Drop debian/patches/00git_*.patch, all upstream.
* Drop 20_deprecated_spam.patch, obsolete.
* debian/control.in: The static bindings (glib, gobject, pygtk, gtk, etc.)
are deprecated and are now shipped in the separate packages
python-gobject-2{,-dbg}. Add a dependency to these for the time being to
not break backwards compatibility. Once all packages have been ported to
use the GI bindings, this dependency and pygobject-2 will be dropped.
* debian/control.in: Update package descriptions to point out that this is
now GI only.
* debian/control.in, debian/rules: Drop python-gobject-dev package. It's
not relevant any more for this version, and now built from the
pygobject-2 source package.
* debian/rules: Bump shlibs.
* Drop debian/python-gobject.examples: These are for the old static
bindings. http://git.gnome.org/browse/pygobject/tree/demos is an actually
useful and comprehensive example, but not shipped in the release tarballs.
* debian/rules: Drop obsolete permission fixing, that only applied to the
examples.
