# * Add gio-module-fam
#     Problem: cyclic dependency on gamin
#     Possible solution: build as a standalone module, set env. vars
# * Make it build without python
#     Problem: an example (test?) program needs it.
#     Possible solution: disable compilation of this example somehow
#     Reminder: add 'sed -e 's@python2\.[0-9]@python@' -i
#       $out/bin/gtester-report' to postInstall if this is solved

      GLib provides the core application building blocks for libraries
      and applications written in C.  It provides the core object
      system used in GNOME, the main loop implementation, and a large
      set of utility functions for strings and common data structures.
