Hello everybody,

Most of you have probably already noticed that some elementary apps
continuously fail to build for Ubuntu Precise in elementary PPAs. Fabian
Thoma has tracked the issues down; they are caused by the deprecation of Glib
thread API<http://developer.gnome.org/glib/2.31/glib-Deprecated-Thread-APIs.html>.
Every affected app should be converted to the new
API<http://developer.gnome.org/glib/2.31/glib-Threads.html>ASAP; if
you cannot do that for some reason or urgently need a build
hotfix, you can add "gthread" to C-only build dependencies in CMake
(example can be found in commits 20 and 21 in wingpanel
trunk<https://code.launchpad.net/%7Eelementary-pantheon/wingpanel/wingpanel-gtk3>).
Obviously, migration to the new API is preferred.
