Thanks for the info, I looked at an updated glib for another package as dependency
lately and it does not look good, it compiles but lots of tests are failing,
at least these:

The tests were from the most recent 2.29.16.

Every one of them would need close inspection and a bug report.
Lets first get gcc and the release process done. Apart from that
I would find having a recent glib/gtk+ important enough to spent
some time on it.


Best regards
