Bug Description

Update to glib >= 2.75.1 because that's what mutter 44 now requires.

I was using the latest version of glib 2.75 as packaged in Debian experimental for a few days, but my sound broke. See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/2769

There probably are other things that broke because of that behavior change.

Also, recent changes made glib break on other architectures (endian issue?) which means it would be stuck in lunar-proposed until that is fixed.

OTOH, it's a trivial revert in mutter 44 to drop the new glib dependency.

While the issue in bug #2008279 will be fixed via a snapd change, it was caused by a glib change. We don't want glib2.0 >=2.75 to migrate before snapd 2.58.3+23.04ubuntu1 has made it to lunar-release and has been confirmed to fix the issue.

It's still trivial to patch mutter to not need this, so low priority.

@Daniel: It's already in -proposed. And there are more packages which depend on glib >=2.75.

Snapd just migrated, we can remove the block.
