Glib is available via CPAN, or as a tarball from Sourceforge:

  http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtk2-perl/Glib-1.307.tar.gz
  (http://bit.ly/1yJZ84N)

Or view the source in the Gtk2-Perl git repo:

  (http://bit.ly/1yJZ84R)

This release works with all stable releases of glib-2.x.

In order to build Glib from source, you must have glib-2.x and its
development headers and utilities installed, as well as the pkg-config
utility.  In addition, the following Perl modules are needed at build
time (but not at runtime):

 ExtUtils::Depends >= 0.300
 ExtUtils::PkgConfig >= 1.000

Glib provides Perl access to the GLib and GObject libraries.  GLib is
a portability and utility library; GObject provides a generic type
system with inheritance and a powerful signal system.  Together these
libraries are used as the foundation for many of the libraries that
make up the Gnome environment, and are used in many unrelated
projects.
