glib2.0 (2.51.4-1) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Team upload
  * New upstream release 2.51.4 (and 2.51.3)
  * Build with dh instead of cdbs
    - Move to debhelper compat level 10
    - Use dpkg-buildflags variables to extend LDFLAGS
    - Enable bindnow hardening
    - Remove indirection via $(SHARED_PKG), etc. variables
    - Let dh_gnome_clean update the Uploaders instead of reinventing it
    - Install some missing files detected by dh_install --list-missing
    - Fix lintian warnings about useless use of dh-exec
    - debian/dh_listmissing.pl: Remove
  * Improve packaging for cross-compiling (Closes: #648621, #842442)
    - Move glib-genmarshal and related files to a new M-A:foreign package
      libglib2.0-dev-bin. Thanks to Helmut Grohne for the patch.
    - Additionally move gdbus-codegen and gtester-report to
      libglib2.0-dev-bin.  They are architecture-independent, so in
      particular clearly Multi-Arch: foreign; they aren't large enough to
      justify a separate Architecture: all package. This works around
      dh_python3's postinst snippet failing when used in a Multi-Arch: same
      package with more than one instance installed.
    - Move gtester to libglib2.0-dev-bin. It is a test-runner that can
      operate on any executable, and does not rely on a matching architecture.
    - Move gobject-query to libglib2.0-dev-bin. It prints the same things on
      all architectures, and it isn't clear what use it is; glib-2.0.m4
      checks for it and AC_SUBSTs it, but according to codesearch.debian.net
      no package actually seems to run it.
    - Make libglib2.0-dev Multi-Arch: same
  * Move gdb helpers from libglib2.0-0-dbg to libglib2.0-dev, move
    detached debug symbols from libglib2.0-0-dbg to autogenerated -dbgsym
    packages, and remove the libglib2.0-0-dbg binary package
  * Add support for noudeb build profile
    - Do not do the udeb build if the noudeb profile is selected,
      for faster test-builds
  * Fix assorted Lintian warnings
    - Add missing build-dependency on dh-python
      + remove obsolete Lintian override for mmissing B-D on python
    - Add Lintian overrides for some intentionally weird scripts used in tests
    - Do not install glib_gdb.py, gobject_gdb.py executable. They are
      libraries to be imported by the gdb hooks, not scripts.
    - Don't generate a ldconfig trigger for libglib2.0-tests, which does
      not contain any public shared libraries
  * Add patch to make glib-mkenums output more reproducible (Closes: #809152)
  * Explicitly build-depend on automake so that the aspcud resolver used for
    experimental does not decide automake1.11 is the best solution to
    a dependency on automake | automaken
