[Bug 1923642] Re: glib can no longer be included in extern "C" blocks

[Heather Ellsworth]

@Gunnar, Thanks! I didn't realize that the 4.6 that debian pulled fixes
the issue. There was nothing in the 4.6 commits that suggested this
issue had been fixed, so did you just build and test it to see? Or how
did you know that 4.6 fixes the issue?

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/gnucash/-/compare/f9461670c5f516e31631a80975eebf6b6e56a1c6...c45dcd6db80fc45ef60cc5d30eb5612f6b64ce9d

I don't doubt you at all, just trying to figure out what I missed :)

Also, this creating of a patch worked 2 months ago to get past the build
issue.. so yesterday I assumed it would still work. But it looks like
there are more files to patch now and you've done that with your
patches. But, why not put all of the patches into one big patch?
