RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
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.

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...

Hm, maybe we can. I'm doing a test build now with a rebased patch to do so on top of 2.28.8.
