Comment 1 Simon Feltman 2016-12-22 07:16:00 UTC 
Cannot use functions which take GObject.EnumClass as arguments

Particularly GObject.enum_get_value_by_nick() is not functioning. Normally GType or GI classes are automatically coerced to GObjectClass instances. In the case of GObject.GEnum, it is directly derived from the builtin Python "int" so this may be problematic.

Example:

    from gi.repository import GObject, Gio
    GObject.enum_get_value_by_nick(Gio.BusType, 'system')

    Traceback (most recent call last):

+ Trace 237013

  • File "enum.py", line 3 in <module> 
    GObject.enum_get_value_by_nick(Gio.BusType, 'system')     TypeError: argument enum_class: Expected GObject.EnumClass, but got gi.repository.Gio.type

Closing this temporarily, as the attachment above triggers a bug in the gitlab migration tool: https://gitlab.gnome.org/External/bztogl/issues/16

Once that is done we can recreate the bug on gitlab.
