Glib 1.312 (unstable) available

[Brian Manning <cpan xaoc org>]

Overview of changes in Glib 1.312 (unstable) [2015-07-16]
==========================================================

* Fix incorrect version in Glib::GenPod


Glib is currently available only via CPAN, as Sourceforge has had a
hard fault on their storage, and they're read-only at the moment.  You
can use either the CPAN.pm or App::cpanminus (cpanm) clients to
install this version; the CPAN.pm client will need a one-time setup
prior to it downloading and installing Glib.

# CPAN.pm
cpan XAOC/Glib-1.312.tar.gz

# App::cpanminus/cpanm
cpanm XAOC/Glib-1.312.tar.gz

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

  http://git.gnome.org/browse/perl-Glib/tag/?id=rel-1-31-2
  (http://bit.ly/1DjLowT)

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.
