Update to 2.38.1

[Iain Lane]

We'd like to SRU the GLib point release.

 glib2.0 (2.38.1-0ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream bugfix release 2.38.1
     + Fix error code checks when SOCK_CLOEXEC is defined but not supported
       (fix support for GNU/Hurd)
     + g_settings_list_children: only list viable schemas (fix gsettings
       list-recursively crashes with invalid schemas installed)
     + GDBusObjectManagerClient: Fix typo in the /org/freedesktop/DBus path
       when adding match rules
       - Remove 0001-gio-Fix-typo-in-the-org-freedesktop-DBus-path.patch
   * 0001-g_file_copy-Fall-back-to-pathname-queryinfo-to-help-.patch:
     Cherry-pick gio patch to fall back to g_file_query_info if
     query_info_on_read is not supported. Fixes copying from backends that
     don't implement the latter. (Closes: #715436, LP: #1217230)

This (not the cherry-picked patch, that is covered by its own bug) comes under the GNOME micro release exception. Install the SRU and test your system generally. If you don't see any regressions then the bug is fixed.
