If we've decided to keep this in /usr, then the binary packages look
good to me; programs built against previous versions of glib2 are
working fine, and I built perl-Glib against this and it passed all its
tests.

One last remark about the prefix: remember that libtool hardcodes the
path of dependancy_libs in the .la, so switching paths means not only
rebuilding one library, but rebuilding everything dependent on it.  In
other words, we want to decide this NOW.

The build script needs a couple of changes; the patch is attached.  The
rest of us don't have a working gtk-doc installation, so
- --disable-gtk-doc is needed.  Note that the resulting glib2-doc tarball
is half the size of yours, although the file list is the same AFAICT;
not sure why.

Does a runtime lib belong in Devel?

You need to add the line "external-source: glib2" here.  You already
corrected the requires line IIRC.

Ditto for the "external-source: glib2" here.
