Description Florian Weimer 2023-04-26 19:49:39 UTC 
The generated C code calls pango_font_metrics_new and pango_font_map_get_shape_engine_type, but these functions are no longer declared in the installed pango header files.

This looks like it could cause pointer truncation on 64-bit architectures and crashes.

Filing this here because upstream seems to have superseded this package with pygobject.

Reproducible: Always
