Description matthias.grobarek 2021-05-31 17:03:04 UTC

When trying to build baobab 40.0, it quickly fails with the following error message in the compile stage:

error: Package `libhandy-1' not found in specified Vala API directories or GObject-Introspection GIR directories

Oddly, the configure script recognizes libhandy in my system, so I’m not sure if the configure script looks for the wrong lib version or if the compile stage has a bug. I do have libhandy 1.2.2 installed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Update to / build baobab 40.0

Actual Results:  
Error during compile stage (see build.log).

Expected Results:  
Should build properly.

Thanks. I think this is because you have libhandy built with USE=-vala and baobab actually requires the vala bindings.
