Description Martin Pitt 2013-02-26 08:48:11 UTC 
GIRs have information about deprecated symbols, for example GLib-2.0:

    <record name="Date"
    [...]
      <method name="set_time"
              c:identifier="g_date_set_time"
              deprecated="Use g_date_set_time_t() instead."
              deprecated-version="2.10">

But g-ir-compiler does not put the deprecated and deprecated-version fields into typelibs. With that an introspection client can just ask  g_base_info_is_deprecated(), but cannot write any additional helpful information into generated warnings.

Updating the typelib at this point is kind of hard without breaking ABI.
