These are not actually maintained as part of GLib - they come from the gobject-introspection source package. As a result, they're in the libgirepository1.0-dev package. What program or toolchain are you using that requires those GIR XML files? It should probably have a dependency or build-dependency (as appropriate) on libgirepository1.0-dev. > gir1.2-glib-2.0.deb package only contains the .typelib files. FYI, all gir1.2-* packages only contain the typelib files. smcv
