Simon McVittie 7ff0fb3af5 spawn: Don't set a search path if we don't want to search PATH 
do_exec() and g_execute() rely on being passed a NULL search path
if we intend to avoid searching the PATH, but since the refactoring
in commit 62ce66d4, this was never done. This resulted in some spawn
calls searching the PATH when it was not intended.

Spawn calls that go through the posix_spawn fast-path were unaffected.

The deprecated gtester utility, as used in GTK 3, relies on the
ability to run an executable from the current working directory by
omitting the G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH flag. This *mostly* worked, because
our fallback PATH ends with ".". However, if an executable of the
same name existed in /usr/bin or /bin, it would run that instead of the
intended test: in particular, GTK 3's build-time tests failed if
ImageMagick happens to be installed, because gtester would accidentally
run display(1) instead of testsuite/gdk/display.

Fixes: 62ce66d4 "gspawn: Don’t use getenv() in async-signal-safe context"

README.md

GLib

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects such as GTK and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C, portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.

The official download locations are: https://download.gnome.org/sources/glib

The official web site is: https://www.gtk.org/

Installation

See the file 'INSTALL.in'

How to report bugs

Bugs should be reported to the GNOME issue tracking system. (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/new). You will need to create an account for yourself.

In the bug report please include:

  • Information about your system. For instance:
    • What operating system and version
    • For Linux, what version of the C library
    • And anything else you think is relevant.
  • How to reproduce the bug.
    • If you can reproduce it with one of the test programs that are built in the tests/ subdirectory, that will be most convenient. Otherwise, please include a short test program that exhibits the behavior. As a last resort, you can also provide a pointer to a larger piece of software that can be downloaded.
  • If the bug was a crash, the exact text that was printed out when the crash occurred.
  • Further information such as stack traces may be useful, but is not necessary.

Patches

Patches should also be submitted as merge requests to gitlab.gnome.org. If the patch fixes an existing issue, please refer to the issue in your commit message with the following notation (for issue 123): Closes: #123

Otherwise, create a new merge request that introduces the change, filing a separate issue is not required.
