Description Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2009-11-30 22:47:45 UTC 
Hi,

Currently gir-repository builds gobject introspection support for libnautilus-extension. This is not ideal because it causes dependency loops:

gir-repository build depends on libnautilus-extension
libnautilus-extension build depends on gstreamer
gstreamer build depens on gir-repository

Therefore I think the gobject introspection support should be built from nautilus itself. It makes more sense than to build it for everything from another package anyway...

You can look for BUILD_NAUTILUS in http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gir-repository/tree/gir/Makefile.am to see how gir-repository builds it.
Comment 1 Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2009-11-30 22:49:35 UTC 
Sorry, it should be
gir-repository build depends on nautilus
nautilus build depends on tracker
tracker build depends on gstreamer
gstreamer build depends on gir-repository
Comment 2 Cosimo Cecchi 2010-05-19 15:07:57 UTC 
This is fixed now in master.
