I have a new version of the gbonds package prepared and sent to my
sponsor for upload.

The vast majority of the credit for this upload goes to Yavor Doganov
who submitted a series of patches to modernize the gbonds code, porting
it to GTK+ 3, GIO, and GSettings and restoring printing support! This
resolves the serious bugs which would have otherwise required the
removal of gbonds prior to the Buster release.

I am extremely grateful for this generous contribution of coding time
and skill!

Yavor Doganov: I made the following changes to your patches in the
process of accepting them:

Port to GTK+ 3 and GIO:
  - Dropped spurious diff header changes to other files
  - Folded in the remainder of debian/patches/libgnomeprint

^ These changes were cosmetic in nature.


Port to GSettings:
  - Install the schema and setting files into gbonds-data

^ These files were required. I simply added them to
  debian/gbonds-data.install so they ended up in the package.


I tested this with my usual real-world data file and usage. I also
tested downloading new redemption data from the Treasury. I tested the
printing functionality to the point of a Preview. It looks great to me!
