I made a squeeze base image using pbuilder (in fact using cowbuilder):
# cowbuilder \
--create \
--basepath /var/cache/pbuilder/squeeze-amd64/base.cow \
--distribution squeeze
and built the package using:
$ sudo cowbuilder --build planner_0.14.5-1.dsc \
--basepath /var/cache/pbuilder/squeeze-amd64/base.cow \
--distribution squeeze \
--logfile ./planner_build_for_squeeze-$(date +%F_%H-%M-%S).build
and I can not reproduce the bug.
You can verify in the build log[0] that the version of
python-gobject-dev is 2.21.4+is.2.21.3-1 (the right one from
stable[1]).
Dmitry could you provide more information in order to try to reproduce
the bug?, maybe a build log or the exact version of the build dependencies
installed.
Gergely and Dmitry thanks for your interest and help in this package.
