Unfortunately, gobject-introspection 1.78.1-13 was uploaded a few hours after Ubuntu started the Python 3.12 transition which has not quite finished. We also thought that it was getting late to not have gotten glib into Ubuntu so we synced glib 2.79 which then forced us to get gboject-introspection 1.79 too. So glib can't migrate without gobject-introspection which has to wait for python3-defaults to migrate. https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gobject-introspection/-/merge_requests/14 I think there are few enough packages involved that we can manually trigger the autopkgtests we need this week since I got the meson ppc64el autopkgtest to pass. Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
