Also, g_utf8_make_valid is introduced in 2.51.0, but changed from 2.51.4
to 2.51.5:

//glib-2.51.4/glib/gunicode.h
gchar *g_utf8_make_valid(const gchar *str);

//glib-2.51.5/glib/gunicode.h
gchar *g_utf8_make_valid(const gchar *str, gssize len);

The minimum version should be 2.51.5, instead of 2.51.0 in the symbols
file.

Title:
  some minimum versions in the symbols file are not updated

Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  The signature of the following symbols changed from glib-2.39.1 to
  glib-2.39.2:

  //glib-2.39.1/glib/ghash.h
  void g_hash_table_insert(...);
  void g_hash_table_replace(...);
  void g_hash_table_add(...);

  //glib-2.39.2/glib/ghash.h
  gboolean g_hash_table_insert(...);
  gboolean g_hash_table_replace(...);
  gboolean g_hash_table_add(...);

  However, the minimum versions of these symbols in the symbols file are
  all 2.12.0.

  The minimum versions are supposed to be 2.39.2, or a client using a
  gboolean return value may be linked to an old version returning void.

  Best,
  Zhouyang
