GPtrArray support in pygobject / gobject-introspection

[Alex Eftimie <alex rosedu org>]

Hi everyone,

First post on this list, a quick introduction: I am a GSoC student
bringing a PackageKit backend to Ubuntu Software Center. I will be
using the gi python bindings of packagekit, which are currently broken
because: 1. nobody use them 2. they rely on PKResults objects, also
relying on GPtrArray lists - which are not implemented in pygobject.

So, after a hard time familiarizing with with jhbuild (basically due
to my poor knowledge of how it should work), I'm bringing to your
attention: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652256 and the
attached patches (the first one needs some more work, although all
tests pass, valgrind reports leaks).

Thanks, please let me know what else should I do,
Alex
