In PackageKit, I have to explicitly cast in my finish function: static void pk_package_sack_merge_state_finish (PkPackageSackState *state, const GError *error) { ... g_simple_async_result_set_from_error (state->res, (GError*) error); ... } The finish function is passed a const GError (as the error can't be freed), hence the cast is required for the compiler not to warn. Of course, the correct thing to do would be to trivially fix gio, and a patch is attached that does exactly that. Okay to commit? Richard.
