[patch] Make gnome-2-32 branch build against glib >= 2.27.1
Last modified: 2011-03-21 15:55:55 UTC
There will be people using glib 2.28 with GNOME 2.32. So for gvfs, we want to check the glib version before deciding whether the app lookup extension should be built or not. Here's a simple patch for it.

PING.
Vincent, looking at the changes in gvfs 1.7 series I see no reason why people would not be able to run new gvfs with new glib in an old distro. The changes made don't really affect anything else. I'm not against pushing your patch to the stable branch, just being curious :-)
We needed the patch because in openSUSE 11.4, we use glib 2.28 with GNOME 2.32, ie gvfs 1.6.
Committed to gnome-2-32, 1.6.7 maintenance release will follow shortly... commit 7552d43b182c00fe0479f56920f09170aafd5662 Author: Vincent Untz <vuntz@gnome.org> Date: Mon Mar 21 16:43:11 2011 +0100 Do not build app lookup extension if we have glib >= 2.27.1 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635252
