I'm not sure what exactly they are really talking about at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pygobject/issues/198.
My FR concerns 3.26.1-2ubuntu1 and at gitlab it is stated "I think it used to work in 3.26." which clearly is not the case. I took a look into the source and in pygi-value.c I found this: case G_TYPE_INT: { glong val = PYGLIB_PyLong_AsLong(obj); if (val == -1 && PyErr_Occurred ()) return -1; if (val > G_MAXINT || val < G_MININT) { PyErr_SetString(PyExc_OverflowError, "out of range for int property"); return -1; } g_value_set_int(value, (gint)val); break; } and a lot of comments like this: #if PY_VERSION_HEX < 0x03000000 [snip] #endif To me this means that somebody is/was aware of the fact that some more work has to be done for making this stuff compatible to Python 3.
