I agree with having it as a new global USE-flag, but I am unsure about |
| 20 |
enabling it by default just now, since some automagic dependency |
| 21 |
problems appeared some time ago :-/, but I will leave this decision to |
| 22 |
other Gnome team members as I don't know much about introspection and |
| 23 |
maybe these issues got fixed already |
