About GLib
==========

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects
such as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C,
portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as
an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.

News
====

* Implement the Desktop Action specification: In the case that the
  application is a GApplication and DBusActivatable, actions from the
  desktop file are translated into GActions that have been added to
  the  application with g_action_map_add_action().

* GPropertyAction is a new type of GAction that represents the value
  of a property on an object, and allows to change the value when
  activated.

* GNetworkMonitorNetlink can now handle default routes via a device.

* The gsettings tool now reports failure to write a key (e.g. because
  the key was locked down)

* Miscellaneous new api:
 - g_variant_new_printf
 - g_action_print_detailed_name
 - g_regex_get_max_lookbehind
