Bug Description
Well it seems at it was not a good idea to add the vapi files to the libpeas package as Vala itself now ships a vapi for libpeas.
I bumped into an issue where the libpeas package vapi file overwrote
the behavior of the vapi file of vala itself which led to a compile error.
See gnome bug for details <https:/
In this bug the vala binding maintainer Luca Bruno states the following:
packages except the library and vala shouldn't ship foreign vapis. They
should be kept internal to the application.
That is, if libpeas decides to ship a vapi is ok, but not others.
When now bugs in the libpeas bindings get fixed such will never show
up on a Ubuntu system as the vapi file of the libpeas package will
always win over the vapi file of the vala package.
