Hey, we talked about that before. ;)

gtksourceview 1.x has been substituted by 2.x during the 2.19 cycle
already, and no 2.20 release shipped with it. It sneaked back in in
2.21.90, obviously by accident.

Yeah, those bindings still will be built *optionally*. It is not a
required dependency, and pygtksourceview has been split off during
deprecation of the old 1.x bindings.

Official GNOME does not depend on the old gtksourceview or its python
bindings. Only a very few, pretty much unmaintained applications still
have not been ported.


My vote is to properly remove it from the stable branch as well, as it
has been done last cycle.
