Bug Description

Gdk-3.0.{gir,typelib} omits GType info for enumerations. So the following script will fail:

#!/usr/bin/python
import pyatspi
from gi.repository import Gdk

Here is the upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647729

Ultimately the issue surfaces in debian-style packages because the build dir is separate from the source tree.

Aha, looks like I need to update my bug mail notifications as I don't seem to have gotten this notice.

But, yeah, this affects me along with all Orca users. Orca no longer runs in Oneiric now that introspection is being used. :-/

Indeed, "diff -u /usr/share/gir-1.0/Gdk-3.0.gir /home/martin-scratch/gnome/share/gir-1.0/Gdk-3.0.gir" shows e. g.

- <enumeration name="EventType" c:type="GdkEventType">
+ <enumeration name="EventType"
+ glib:type-name="GdkEventType"
+ glib:get-type="gdk_event_type_get_type"
+ c:type="GdkEventType">

This bug was fixed in the package gtk+3.0 - 3.1.18-0ubuntu2

---------------
gtk+3.0 (3.1.18-0ubuntu2) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Add 101_gdkenumtypes.c_location.patch: Always generate gdk/gdkenumtypes.c
    in the source tree, and fix path in the introspection sources. With this,
    gdkenumtypes.c is correctly included with separate build trees, too. This
    fixes missing GTypes in the .gir when using a separate build tree.
    (LP: #769256)
  * Ship pregenerated documentation from upstream tarball again:
    - debian/rules: Drop --enable-gtk-doc again.
    - debian/control.in: Move gtk-doc-tools back to B-D-I.
    - debian/libgtk-3-doc.install.in, debian/libgail-3-doc.install: Update
      origins to install from source tree.
