+Overview of changes in GLib 2.41.0
+===================================
+
+* Many bugfixes found by static analysis, including potential fd leaks
+  and NULL pointer dereferences.
+
+* Increased use of (nullable) attribute on out values and return types
+  now that it is supported (mostly from porting Vala metadata).
+
+* use XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP for OnlyShowIn/NotShowIn handling of desktop
+  files, deprecating g_desktop_app_info_set_desktop_env()
+
+* add support for g_desktop_app_info_get_implementations() to find
+  desktop files that have an Implements= line for a given interface
+
+* GHmac has gained SHA-512 support
+
+* support the new mimeapps specification (most notably, moving the
+  assoications/defaults configuration to ~/.config/mimeapps.list).
+
+* libgobject is now linked -Wl,-z,nodelete when possible to avoid errors
+  when gobject is used from a module for a program that does not itself
+  use gobject and that module is unloaded/reloaded
+
+* ... and many other bug fixes.
