GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 622894
Migrate from dbus-glib to glib's GDBus
Last modified: 2021-05-26 09:26:07 UTC
For GLib 2.25.5 GDBus D-Bus support was merged, providing an API to replace dbus-glib. See http://library.gnome.org/devel/gio/unstable/gdbus.html and http://library.gnome.org/devel/gio/unstable/ch28.html . According to a quick grep this module seems to use dbus-glib: ./vinagre/configure.ac: dbus-glib-1 \
Seems our unique consumer of dbus is telepathy stuff. Guillaume, is it easy to replace dbus-glib with GDBus?
Actually no. telepathy-glib be ported first and it's far from being a trivial job as it's a pretty heavy user of dbus-glib as you can imagine.
For reference, this is the telepathy bug report https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28782
Hi, now that https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28782 is fixed, is there any plans to work on this?
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of Vinagre, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new enhancement request ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vinagre/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
