[Pkg-vala-maintainers] Bug#741100: valac-0.22: GLib handling uses deprecated functions

[Fabien Givors (Debian)]

Package: valac-0.22
Version: 0.22.1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

While building the enclosed xdg-autostart.vala file, I noticed some
warnings issued by the C compiler and pointing out the use of deprecated
function:

xdg-autostart.vala.c: In function 'main':
xdg-autostart.vala.c:704:2: warning:
'g_type_init' is deprecated (declared at
/usr/include/glib-2.0/gobject/gtype.h:669) [-Wdeprecated-declarations]
  g_type_init ();
    ^

Or incompatible pointer casts:

xdg-autostart.vala.c: In function ‘autostart_xdg_autostart’:
xdg-autostart.vala.c:632:18: warning: assignment from incompatible
pointer type [enabled by default]
  _tmp4_ = _tmp3_ = g_get_system_config_dirs ();
                    ^
xdg-autostart.vala.c:668:3: warning: passing argument 2 of
‘g_hash_table_foreach’ from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
  g_hash_table_foreach (_tmp13_, _autostart_launch_file_gh_func, NULL);
  ^

I assume these warnings are caused by the the compilation of GLib vala
code into outdated GLib C code.

Best wishes,
Fabien
