Hi developers,

I made a mistake in our release validation process, and accidentally 
included incompatible versions of glib (2.57.1) and 
gobject-introspection (1.57.2) in GNOME 3.29.91. gobject-introspection 
1.57.2 requires glib 2.57.2, but this version of glib is incompatible 
with GNOME 3.29.91. I properly downgraded glib when I noticed this, but 
failed to downgrade gobject-introspection as well. The result is that 
GNOME 3.29.91 is not buildable.

Actions:

* I'm currently working on an updated release with 
gobject-introspection downgraded to 1.56.1, to be published when 
available.
* I've updated our release procedure to require the strict build plan 
in BuildStream, to avoid this happening in the future.

Lastly, I'll remind maintainers that it would be really helpful to 
release according to our release schedule when there are build fixes 
present in your tree, so that we wouldn't have to fight so many build 
failures and downgrade so many modules. I'm still waiting on releases 
from gtk-doc, gnome-online-accounts, gnome-boxes, and gnome-software, 
all of which were broken and required workarounds to be included in 
GNOME 3.29.91.
