This bug was fixed in the package glib2.0 - 2.30.0-0ubuntu1

---------------
glib2.0 (2.30.0-0ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * New upstream release for GNOME 3.2 final:
    - This release contains an ABI change: code written by the GDBus code
      generation in this version of GLib is not compatible with earlier
      versions of the library (and vice versa)
    - desktop file handling: avoid mimeapps.list corruption issue
    - info capplet: Failed to calculate disk space. (LP: #805504)
    - _set_as_last_used_for_type generates a broken mimeapps.list
      (LP: #854124)
    - Various bug fixes.
    - Translation updates.
  * 01_gettext-desktopfiles.patch, 04_homedir_env.patch: Refresh to apply
    cleanly.
  * debian/libglib2.0-0.symbols: Update to new upstream version,
    g_slice_debug_tree_statistics() was dropped. (Not part of official API,
    not documented.)
  * debian/control.in: Add Breaks: to the nautilus and gnome-online-accounts
    versions which were built with the previous unstable gdbus-codegen
    version, these need a rebuild. While this doesn't actually break nautilus,
    it's safer to do so.
