Hi Robert, No, this is so strange, absolutely no trace through apt of the new packages proposed by Spacewalk on the Debian server. I need to troubleshoot this deeper. root@debian10:~# apt-cache show python-gobject Package: python-gobject Status: install ok installed Priority: extra Section: oldlibs Installed-Size: 323 Maintainer: Debian GNOME Maintainers < <a href="mailto:pkg-gnome-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org" target="_blank">pkg-gnome-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org</a>> Architecture: all Source: pygobject Version: 3.22.0-2 Depends: python-gi (>= 3.22.0-2), python-gobject-2 Description: Python 2.x bindings for GObject - transitional package This package will bring the two versions of GObject Python modules: the deprecated gobject module, and the new gobject-introspection system. It is here for upgrade purposes only. You can remove it safely when nothing else depends on it.
