Bug Description

glibmm 2.16.1 has some important reference-counting fixes. Without these fixes, data will not be written out to files when expected, causing data loss.

Please update, and in general, please try to take our stable bug-fix updates without us asking.

TESTCASE: there is no special testcase, that's a new version so just try using gnome-system-monitor and some other gtkmm applications and make sure they still work correctly

I've using the proposed package and didn't notice any regression also tested the gnome-system-monitor which also works fine, marking this as verification done, thanks you.
