Description Scott Garman 2011-05-12 14:05:39 UTC 
As part of the documentation audit, the gobject-introspection recipe failed to build for qemux86 on my Fedora 14 host. I will attach the build error log to this bug.
Comment 1 Scott Garman 2011-05-12 15:43:13 UTC 
The reason why this fails is it has a DEPENDS on gobject-introspection-native and *that* fails with the do_compile log I'm attaching.

Comment 3 Saul Wold 2011-08-24 14:12:02 UTC 
There is an upstream bug for this, I will post a link when I track it down.

Add uid_t, gid_t, dev_t to integral type conversions

After update it still fails:
| checking for headers required to compile python extensions... not found
| configure: error: Python headers not found

Then check the config.log:

Comment 6 Saul Wold 2012-08-13 13:56:33 UTC 
The recipe was removed by RP and a introspection class was created instead.
