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
====

* Many bugfixes found by static analysis, including potential fd leaks
  and NULL pointer dereferences.

* Increased use of (nullable) attribute on out values and return types
  now that it is supported (mostly from porting Vala metadata).

* use XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP for OnlyShowIn/NotShowIn handling of desktop
  files, deprecating g_desktop_app_info_set_desktop_env()

* add support for g_desktop_app_info_get_implementations() to find
  desktop files that have an Implements= line for a given interface

* GHmac has gained SHA-512 support

* support the new mimeapps specification (most notably, moving the
  assoications/defaults configuration to ~/.config/mimeapps.list).

* libgobject is now linked -Wl,-z,nodelete when possible to avoid errors
  when gobject is used from a module for a program that does not itself
  use gobject and that module is unloaded/reloaded

* ... and many other bug fixes.
