This makes 'bluez' python programs work (they import gi.repository, iirc), like bluez-simple-agent. But I don't know if it breaks things.

bluez-simple-agent is what I use to authenticate bluetooth devices, so for me it is important to have it working.

It'd be nice if some python maintainer could take a look; if it breaks things, we can have two pygobject.

Trying to package git versions of mypaint I hit additional problems, such as GI_TYPELIB_PATH must be set and similar. I'll contribute those changes to x-updates

Actually, this breaks pygtk and duplicates pull request #470 (which also has a pygtk fix by including pygobject2 as an extra package)...

Current state is: I have both pygtk and gobject (which's trunk version has a pygtk wrapper and is repacing pygtk in the future) both working (mypaint master example). We want to provide patches as gtk3 branch on top of x-updates soon.

Does it make any sense, to get a new pygobject attribute, even if only for bluez? The #470 looks quite complicated to merge.

I'm not finished yet, I tried updating pygobject* related stuff - you
may want to give this patch a try

I mean, adding pygobject3 wouldn't cause any breakage, and fix bluez. That can be done quickly, causing no harm. Do you agree?

bluez-simple-agent fails to work otherwise.
We discussed this a bit on #486, and this looks like the simplest way to
get bluez-simple-agent again.
