I am pleased to announce version 2.28.6 of the Python bindings for GObject.

The new release is available from ftp.gnome.org:

http://download.gnome.org/sources/pygobject/2.28/

What’s new since PyGObject 2.28.4?

        - closure: avoid double free crash (Ignacio Casal Quinteiro)

        - [gi] backport of "GVariant has a GType" fe386a (John (J5)
Palmieri)

        - [gi] fixes to backport commit 6b5a65 - in older glib GVariants are
still structs (John (J5) Palmieri)

        - GVariantType is a boxed struct (Tomeu Vizoso)

        - Use _gi.Struct to wrap fundamentals (Tomeu Vizoso)

        - Added __eq__ method for Gdk.Color and Gdk.RGBA (Jason Siefken)

        - Remove useless import (Ignacio Casal Quinteiro)

        - Revert "[gi] Removed hack to avoid using
GLib.Variant.new_variant." (Ignacio Casal Quinteiro)

        - closure: Check the out arg is not null. Fixes bug #651812 (Ignacio
Casal Quinteiro)

        - Fix GC-related crash during PyGObject deallocation (Daniel Drake)

        - Fix symbol names to be locale independent (Martin Pitt)

        - Updated DOAP file (Sebastian Pölsterl)

Blurb:

GObject is a object system library used by GTK+ and GStreamer.

PyGObject provides a convenient wrapper for the GObject library for use in
Python programs, and takes care of many of the boring details such as
managing memory and type casting. When combined with PyGTK, PyORBit and
gnome-python, it can be used to write full featured Gnome 2 applications.

Like the GObject library itself PyGObject is licensed under the GNU LGPL, so
is suitable for use in both free software and proprietary applications. It
is already in use in many applications ranging from small single purpose
scripts up to large full featured applications.

PyGObject requires glib >= 2.22.4 and Python >= 2.5.1 to build.
GIO bindings require glib >= 2.22.4.

The Introspection module is the next generation Python GObject library
bindings. Instead of statically wrapping every GObject based library we can
now dynamically accesses any of those libraries using GObject Introspection.
It replaces the need for separate modules such as PyGTK, GIO and
python-gnome to build a full GNOME 3.0 application. Once new functionality
is added to gobject library it is instantly available as a Python API
without the need for an intermediate Python module.

Introspection/Python 2 bindings requires gobject-introspection >= 0.9.5 and
pycairo >=1.0.2 or py2cairo >=1.8.10
Introspection/Python 3 bindings requires gobject-introspection >= 0.9.5,
pycairo >=1.8.10 and Python >= 3.1
