--- Comment #15 from Charlie Li <vishwin@freebsd.org> ---
(In reply to Jan Beich from comment #14)
That bit wasn't sustainable and it is now biting us big time. Consumers rea=
lly
need that GLib introspection data that gobject-introspection removed since
1.79, but is only available when -Dintrospection=3Denabled is passed to glib
since 2.79. Noticed especially when devel/libgusb failed to build because t=
hose
files became missing from devel/gobject-introspection.

Further, this also blocks setuptools from being updated. introspection uses
distutils primitives. Only a problem when setuptools is present in the
environment, especially under Python 3.12+ (distutils no longer part of the
base distribution), as setuptools 74+'s copy of distutils removed legacy ms=
vc
compiler modules that introspection referenced until 1.81.2.

You can call this scope creep or whatever you want, but the reality is that=
 the
changes happening in glib are not trivial.
