Public bug reported:
Impact
------
It was detected that something could cause GNOME Shell to crash during the
upgrade from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS to 24.04 LTS. GNOME Shell then was unable to
start because it wasn't able to locate the gio 2.0 gir files.
Therefore, we are bumping the minimum version of the gir1.2-glib-2.0
dependency to 2.80 so that gnome-shell is not upgraded before the gir
file it depends on.
Test Case
---------
What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
Other Info
----------
There was a major reorganization in glib 2.80 compared to glib 2.78. The gir
file is now built by the glib2.0 source package instead of from
gobject-introspection which bumped the package version from 1.78 to 2.78.
