Description Bug flys 2012-11-20 04:40:33 UTC 
The pygi-convert.sh file should be shipped in the distribution tar file and installed to user system.

If it is not supposed to be installed in bin/ directory, at least install it into doc/demo/ or example/ directory.

Download pygi-convert directly from git repository just don't make sense.

It used to make sense when it was still changing ten times a day, but these days it has settled down indeed. At the same time it's much less useful as most important code has already been converted.

We do not currently ship the demo either, as it would be mostly clutter on an user's system. However, distributions usually put it into the -devel or -doc binary package, so they can put pygi-convert.sh to the doc directory as well.

I pushed a fix to ship pygi-convert.sh in the tarballs, and also applied it to the stable branch so that pygobject 3.4.3 will have it, too.
