Bug Description

[ Description ]

GNOME upstream have released a new stable version of gobject-introspection.

Changes:

1.64.1 - 2020-04-05
-------------------

* Replace calls to deprecated xml.etree.cElementTree removed in Python 3.9 :mr:`202` (:user:`Stephen Gallagher <sgallagher>`)
* gimarshallingtests: Use g_assert_cmpfloat_with_epsilon. Fixes tests on some architectures :mr:`200` (:user:`Iain Lane <iainl>`)

[ QA ]

GNOME has a micro release exception that covers this package.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates/GNOME

So we don't need to verify the fixes explicitly.

Do this:

  - Install the update, smoke test some of the reverse depends (apt rdepends libgirepository-1.0-1 and more importantly the indirect rdepends via python3-gi)
  - Run "reverse-depends -b src:gobject-introspection" and test rebuild a few of them

[ Regression potential ]

g-i being broken will break pretty much the whole desktop, but you'd know that quite fast.

The .py changes, if they're wrong or bad, could break the build of r-build-deps.

Hello Iain, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gobject-introspection into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gobject-introspection/1.64.1-1~ubuntu20.04.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.
