Public bug reported:
The version of libgobject included in ubuntu lucid is missing at least one
symbol which is required by python-qt4. The method g_variant_type_copy() is in
gvarianttype.h but the corresponding symbol is not in any of the object files.
As well as breaking every program which uses python-qt4, it also prevents the
following code from being compiled:
#include <glib/gvarianttype.h>
int main(int arvc, char** argv) {
GVariantType * copied;
copied = g_variant_type_copy(G_VARIANT_TYPE_STRING);
printf("%d\n", &copied);
return 0;
}
I will find out whether compiling glib from source solves this problem
