GLib has a lot of reverse dependencies, and the last rebase caused several high profile apps to regress. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1065429 This is going to need some testing. I'm willing to help though. I am being pestered from multiple directions to get glib-networking imported ASAP, which can't really happen until after glib2 is rebased. (In reply to Dan Winship from comment #2) > I am being pestered from multiple directions to get glib-networking imported > ASAP, which can't really happen until after glib2 is rebased. We need gsettings-desktop-schemas though for this to work, per comment #1. Which BTW at least in RHEL7 has: Requires: glib2 >= 2.31.0 I'm not sure I'll have bandwidth to drive this myself in the near future. I can help review patches and work though. Options then: * Defer to 6.7 * Someone else drives this rebase We can't just remove GSettings like last time? (I thought consensus on IRC was that we could? Or maybe there was more discussion after I left...) Is there a bug for adding gsettings-desktop-schemas? The deadline for adding new packages was last week... (In reply to Dan Winship from comment #4) > We can't just remove GSettings like last time? (I thought consensus on IRC > was that we could? Or maybe there was more discussion after I left...) Hm, maybe we can. I'm doing a test build now with a rebased patch to do so on top of 2.28.8. Created attachment 907453 [details]
current WIP rebase patch, just for reference and to avoid data loss
Built as glib2-2.28.8-1.el6 The GVfs fails to compile due to the rebase, see Bug 1118704.
