Description Zeeshan Ali 2008-10-29 20:23:42 UTC 
We have a struct "DIDLLiteResource" in gupnp-av binding, which doesn't have a destroy function but valac assumes there is one by the name "gupnp_didl_lite_resource_destroy" and puts a call to it in the generated C code.

Setting the severity to "blocker" since this breaks the build for Rygel.
Comment 1 Zeeshan Ali 2008-10-31 12:19:38 UTC 
Regenerating the vapi solves the build issue so this is not a blocker anymore. However Vala now leaks the string fields of the mentioned struct, which needs fixing.

I'm blocked with this bug when using the Gtk.RecentData struct.
