- Tracker changed from Issue to Bug
- Category set to networkmanager (charon-nm)
- Status changed from New to Feedback
This is not yet mentioned in the official API doc. Is Debian really using such a bleeding edge version of glib? Anyway, deprecation does not mean it can't be used anymore, so you could just "fix" this by disabling that warning for now.
According to the commit message/comment, a proper fix should refactor this to use G_ADD_PRIVATE()/G_DEFINE_*(). Since I don't really know glib this will need some time to look into.
