gnome-debug.

The current pieces of GDL include:

Update Information:

This update includes a libgdl soname bump and rebuilds of its dependencies.


Details of the soname bump:

libgdl-3.4.1 was binary incompatible with libgdl-3.2.0, but missed a soname bump. This was causing various apps to segfault with libgdl 3.4.1 when they were built against 3.2.0. The 3.4.2 update changes the soname, and has no other code changes.
