Bug 243381: gobject-introspection not updated when upgrading python
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D243381



--- Description ---
I just tried building print/harfbuzz-icu, and it failed, apparently with the
same issue as in bug 243191 and bug 242927. I use portmaster for upgrading =
my
system, and I recently followed the instructions in /usr/ports/UPDATING for
20191216 for users of Python. The issue was resolved by simply recompiling
devel/gobject-introspection. I think this issue was addressed previously in=
 bug
238254, but it has cropped up again with another Python version bump.

Ideally, portupgrade or portmaster would detect these Python bindings and
automatically rebuild gobject-introspection. Failing that, maybe the
gobject-introspection port could be modified so that it includes the @py37
specifier used by many other Python-related ports. At the least, this issue
with gobject-introspection should probably be mentioned in /usr/ports/UPDAT=
ING
as was done for Samba in the 20200113 entry.
