commit caa99860b80ea13b5668cffa3990f94d5f26861e

commit 524f1fb5085c9327bef0bd9d3e626fe34ea8226b
Author: Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>
Date:   Mon Aug 17 19:58:01 2026 +0100

    d/gitlab-ci.yml: Enable arm64 crossbuild test
    
    Cross-compiling this package previously didn't work, so it seems worth
    checking for regressions in future.

commit fa5f74574c52143cc06b065eacdcbd49a06a762c
Author: Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>
Date:   Mon Aug 17 15:15:37 2026 +0100

    d/rules: Use an appropriate host-specific vapigen when cross-compiling
    
    When cross-compiling, we need to look for GLib-2.0.gir in an appropriate
    directory for the host architecture, because it is not identical across
    all architectures. A build-architecture vapigen will not find it.
    
    When libgirepository1.0-dev was a build-dependency, this was masked by
    libgirepository1.0-dev providing a symlink to the build architecture's
    GLib-2.0.gir in /usr/share for backward compatibility with older,
    non-cross-capable toolchains, but that version was never really correct
    for cross-compilation, and with non-deprecated build-dependencies that
    symlink is no longer present.
    
    Normally we'd want to set VAPIGEN, but this particular package's
    upstream build system uses a non-standard variable name VALA_API_GEN,
    so override that instead.

    d/control: Remove unused B-D on libdbus-1-dev

commit a145131e5f4af8a80b94e608727872fad535493d

commit 82e7c89f5e1351fb643567ac25ec96c2187d44fd

Date:   Mon Aug 17 09:09:55 2026 +0100

    d/control: Add missing build-dependencies on gir1.2-*-dev
    
    As diagnosed by build-time warnings from gobject-introspection.

commit 0048588e897ad4b4d021d5c29a014f9e86ccd5d6
Author: Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>
Date:   Mon Aug 17 09:09:26 2026 +0100

    d/control: Add ${gir:Provides} to -dev package
    
    This generates a virtual package for the systematic name
    gir1.2-dee-1.0-dev, to represent the included GIR XML.

commit a1271705e1d1a28145c678105134df39b878d063
Author: Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>
Date:   Mon Aug 17 09:08:34 2026 +0100

    d/control: Use ${gir:Depends} for -dev package
    
    This ensures that other GIR packages required to use the GIR XML in
    this package are installed, and avoids needing to hard-code the name
    of the package containing the typelib.
    
    ${gir:Depends} can be removed if this package moves to debhelper compat
    level 14.
