Previously, _kh_cancel_sub assumed that it only needed to call
_km_remove if sub did not exist in subs_hash_table. This is erroneous
because the complementary operation, _km_add_missing, can be called
from process_kqueue_notifications, in which context sub can *only* have
come from subs_hash_table.
Since _km_remove is implemented using g_slist_remove, which is
documented to be a noop if the list does not contain the element to be
removed, it is safe to call _km_remove unconditionally here.

It was suggested that the project files be moved here as we don't actually
need to go two directory layers from $(srcroot), and would help us to
standardize on things in the future across the board.
When performing the verify and building the error string there were two
possibilities of an infinite loop. The first is the missing twos-complement
to unset the bit in the filtered flags. The second is the lack of handling
G_SUBPROCESS_FLAGS_NONE which can return a valid GFlagsValue (and cannot
unset the bit since the value is zero).
This walks all known values in the GSubprocessFlags type class and check
if they are set. This has the benefit that we don't call needless functions
which walk the same table as well as avoiding mutating values to build
the error string.

Previously, this would not work, as it would result in comparing the
order of a string and an integer. Make it work, and make 'UNRELEASED'
compare higher than other versions so it's always treated as the latest

'UNRELEASED' is commonly used by maintainers to highlight new API while

The two known use-cases for autolaunching are:
* X-forwarding: "ssh -Y myhost myapp" resulting in a
session bus on myhost but an X server on the original host
* Legacy desktop environments on OSs without D-Bus integration:
e.g. running a single GNOME or KDE app under fvwm or something,
without a session dbus-daemon being started by either systemd,
gnome-session, or OS integration scripts analogous to Debian's
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/75dbus_dbus-launch
In either case, an X11 DISPLAY is also needed.
"dbus-launch --autolaunch" doesn't do anything useful when unable
to connect to an X11 display; this has been the case since the feature
was added in 2006, and is useful to avoid "split brain" situations in
which two processes that ought to be part of the same session end up
on separate session buses. Since dbus commit 407c111 in 2011,
libdbus hasn't even attempted to run "dbus-launch --autolaunch"
unless getenv("DISPLAY") returns non-null in the parent: this avoids
doing a relatively complicated fork-and-exec that is clearly not
going to lead to success. This commit gives GDBus the same policy.
This change was originally made to work around a race condition in
subprocess spawning (Debian bug #737380, GNOME bug #711090) but
it seems valid in its own right.
In my opinion as D-Bus maintainer, "dbus-launch --autolaunch" should
be considered to be an X11 feature, and any future D-Bus enhancements
(e.g. kdbus) or successors for X11 (e.g. Wayland, Mir) should obtain
a session bus address by other means - either a session manager
such as "systemd --user", gnome-session or Upstart, or a wrapper
for the user session like dbus-run-session(1).

gdbus-tool prints a hint about the expected arguments to a function call
in case of errors. Unfortunately, it prints this message on all errors.
I've seen this confuse users several times -- they go on tweaking the
arguments trying to get the correct type, even though they had it
correct in the first place.
Let's limit the hint to the case where it was actually invalid arguments
that triggered the problem. Also, adjust the code that prints the
message so that it will also report on the case that no arguments were
expected.
We could possibly get closer to what we want by comparing the list of
expected arguments with the parameter list, as it was parsed from the
user, but that would involve composing the expected type. Let's keep
this simple for now.

When debugging a program or testing a change to an installed version, it
is often useful to be able to replace resources in the program or a
library, without recompiling.
To support this, for debugging and hacking purposes, it's now possible
to define a G_RESOURCE_OVERLAYS environment variable as a
colon-separated list of substitutions to perform when looking up
GResources.
A substitution has the form
"/org/gtk/libgtk=/home/desrt/gtk-overlay"
The part before the '=' is the resource subpath for which the overlay
applies. The part after is a filesystem path which contains files and
subdirectories as you would like to be loaded as resources with the
equivalent names.
In the example above, if an application tried to load a resource with
the resource path '/org/gtk/libgtk/ui/gtkdialog.ui' then GResource would
check the filesystem path '/home/desrt/gtk-overlay/ui/gtkdialog.ui'. If
a file was found there, it would be used instead.
Substitutions must start with a slash, and must not have a trailing
slash before the '='. It is possible to overlay the location of a
single resource with an individual file.

Replace the hand-written equivalent of this with the call to the
GHashTable built-in version to save a few lines of code.
The GResource code was written a couple of years before this function
existed.
Similarly, replace a set-mode usage of g_hash_table_insert() with a call
to g_hash_table_add().

GContextSpecificGroup has been somewhat broken for a rather long time:
when we remove the last reference on an object held in the group, we try
to clean up the source, but fail to actually remove it from the
mainloop.
We will soon stop emitting signals on the source (due to it having been
removed from the hash table) but any "in flight" signals will still be
delivered on the source, which continues to exist. This is a problem if
the event is being delivered just as the object is being destroyed.
This also means that we leave the source attached to the mainloop
forever (and next time will create a new one)...
This is demonstrated with the GtkAppChooser dialog which writes an
update to the mimeapps.list file just as it is closing, triggering the
app info monitor to fire just as it is being destroyed.
Karl Tomlinson correctly analysed the problem and proposed this fix.

GApplication has accepted any valid bus name as an application ID since
before the time of D-Bus activation. This includes bus names with '-'.
Several applications have even attempted support bus activation with
these names, going as far as installing D-Bus service files, without
realising that they are silently falling back to fork()/exec() on
account of the name containing a dash.
The reason for the problem is that D-Bus object paths cannot contain
dashes. We solved this problem privately in an unspecified way inside
of GApplication but substituting '_' in this case, but never made this
part of the Desktop Entry Specification.
The fact that these apps with '-' in the desktop file names aren't
actually using D-Bus activation is beside the point: their intent here
was clear. Let's avoid forcing them to rename their desktop files again
by simply accepting '-' in desktop file names and munging the path in
the way that GApplication did so historically.
The new path escaping code here has been copied more or less verbatim
from GApplication's own code for the same purpose, with only the removal
of one irrelevant part.
An update to the desktop entry specification will follow.

This was confusing some static analysis. Through canonicalize_filename()
at construction time, we guaranteed that ->filename is canonical and
absolute, so g_path_skip_root() should never fail.

This ensures that the generated file is always the same (not dependent
on the build machine's environment), making the build reproducible.

Even though GetStartupInfo() in g_win32_run_session_bus() would
tell us that STARTF_FORCEONFEEDBACK flag is not set, it still
affects the rundll32 process for some reason.
This means that Windows WM changes mouse cursor to IDC_APPSTARTING for
a few seconds when rundll32 runs g_win32_run_session_bus(). Since
g_win32_run_session_bus() never satisfies the conditions set by
STARTF_FORCEONFEEDBACK, the busy cursor only goes away after a
timeout.
Fix this by explicitly running GetMessage(). To ensure that GetMessage()
doesn't block, post a quit message immediately before calling it.
