bah, it failed on i386 and s390x:

Bail out! GLib:ERROR:../../../../glib/gvariant-serialiser.c:174:g_variant_serialised_check: assertion failed (alignment & (gsize) serialised.data == 0): (3 == 0)
ERROR: gvariant - Bail out! GLib:ERROR:../../../../glib/gvariant-serialiser.c:174:g_variant_serialised_check: assertion failed (alignment & (gsize) serialised.data == 0): (3 == 0)

I guess we need these from the branch:

probably.

As per GNOME MRE, package hit properly proposed.

There's quite a few autopkgtest regressions reported for this upload. Can someone take a look at it and check if they're related? Thank you!

Thanks, I retried them all and AFAICS they're all going to go green now (three are red at the minute but I looked at the output on the controller).

yep, looks good to me nwo
