Mikkel,

I just saw your test code in the upstream vala bug. I just wondered whether you are aware that you can use local typelibs by setting $GI_TYPELIB_PATH ? I use

  export GI_TYPELIB_PATH=$HOME/upstream/gtk/gtk:$HOME/upstream/gtk/gdk:$HOME/upstream/pango/pango

This works similar to LD_LIBRARY_PATH for *.so files. By using both you can avoid the "sudo cp" commands to the system dirs.
