excerpt from the irc log: <mbiebl> If I run polkit-gnome 0.104 with glib 2.28.x it fails spectacularly <mbiebl> my guess so far is because of http://git.gnome.org/browse/PolicyKit-gnome/commit/?id=1d019a66f9eaf6cd472eecfa38ce462a1b12906c <jaliste> cosimoc, thanks <mbiebl> I'm getting (polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:21485): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_closure_invoke: assertion `closure->marshal || closure->meta_marshal' failed <ioni> mbiebl, i guess glib requirement should be bumped <mbiebl> ioni: problem is, even if you bump the build time requirement <mbiebl> the problem is, that you can't enforce that via a runtime dep <ioni> works for me with glib 2.30 <mbiebl> I get your point <danw> you can specify "g_cclosure_marshal_generic" explicitly instead of NULL. then it would end up requiring a symbol in 2.30 <mbiebl> danw: thanks, that's a good idea <mbiebl> or is the glib marshaller supposed to work in 2.28? <danw> the generic marshaller was added in 2.30, along with the convention that passing NULL means "use the generic marshaller" <mbiebl> I guess if the symbol is 2.30 specific, that answers this question :-) <mbiebl> danw: if applications silently break because of this, passing NULL is probably not a good idea then <danw> well, they only break if this is the *only* new 2.30 feature you use <danw> but yes, in hindsight, not great
