poppler @24.04.0_0: Couldn't find include 'GObject-2.0.gir'

[breun (Nils Breunese)]

While trying to upgrade poppler 24.03.0_0 to 24.04.0 (sudo port upgrade poppler), I get this error on macOS 14.4.1 arm64:

Same error occurs on Mac 10.13, Xcode 10.1.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Has duplicate #69752.

[mascguy (Christopher Nielsen)]

For everyone's awareness, I believe this is caused by the glib2/gobject-introspection failures seen, via issue:69748 / issue:69750. And this is simply a downstream failure.

So once I've gotten this sorted out - and currently digging into the details as this is being written - this should be resolved.

Don't hesitate to CC yourself on those other two tickets too, though I'll certainly keep all of this updated as progress is made.

[eirnym (Eir Nym)]

The same for pango and other tools and libraries which depend on \GObject-2.0.gir. Thus I can't build ffmpeg6 and few other tools I use.

I can't revert in this case as it's a fresh install

[mascguy (Christopher Nielsen)]

For anyone who isn't CCed on issue:69748, we've gone ahead and reverted glib2 and gobject-introspection to their previous versions.

Wait at least 3-4 hours - we're still rev-bumping dependent ports, to ensure any broken binaries are fixed - and then resync your ports tree via sudo port selfupdate. Then upgrade all ports.
