Hello, I was packaging libaccounts-glib for the KDE team and Scott Kitterman noticed a ./usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/overrides/Accounts.py (and python3 version) in gir1.2-accounts-1.0. I saw you're the maintainer for python-gi and probably understand how the gi/override is supposed to work.
He thinks I should add a python dependency for the package, I think that the Accounts.py is incidental to the operation of a gir1.2 package, as I understand it typelibs can be used by other languages. I was hoping you could weigh in what the gi/override directory is for, and if gir1.2- packages that contain a gi/override should have a dependency on python? This is the start of the thread of you want to review our discussion so far. https://lists.debian.org/msgid-search/e1zayue-0003zv...@franck.debian.org (And just in general is there documentation about how typelibs work? I've had some trouble finding it) Diane Trout
