[ QA ] The testsuite fixes will verify themselves during the build and autopkgtest. For the rest of the fixes, please exercise the desktop thoroughly. Log in, log out, run many applications and make sure there are no regressions. [ Regression potential ] test fixes> Build failures or autopkgtest failures. GLib is a central desktop library. Regressions could break any part of the desktop - so QA is important, the SRU exception notwithstanding.
