introspection: Explicitly include libgdk-x11.la when scanning gtk (1.02 KB, patch)

Description Colin Walters 2010-10-28 21:42:55 UTC 
Debian changed the behavior of libtool to not follow dependencies
from .la files.  Fortunately, the scanner explicitly looks at the
.la files to see if they're really shared; if not it doesn't add
them to the .gir, so there's no cost.

Fix below (modified for gtk-2.0) did not help

This worked - but it's a really messy way to solve it.

This was with gobject-introspection (HEAD) + gtk-2.24 branch of gtk.

Error message (for reference) was:
