Finally got my YouTube live chat API client library working with the peel C++ bindings generator for #GLib / #GObject. I built a small coroutine task abstraction that makes working with GLib-style async functions much cleaner.
Still a lot more work to do to with caching/refreshing OAuth tokens and processing of messages, but hopefully I can get a prototype libpurple plugin (the ultimate goal) working fairly soon
Looks like it's a problem with the XDG Template directory being set to the home directory, and it now just recurses and recurses and recurses and gets FAR too busy.

Specifically, it's about `$HOME/` not being recognised as the home directory because of the trailing slash.

So either edit your config as per the Debian comment, or wait for your distro to release the fix.
First a bit of context for the GLib project, which is comprised of three main parts: GLib, GObject and GIO. #GLib contains things you'd generally get from a standard library, #GObject defines the OOP semantics (methods/properties/signals, inheritance, etc), and #GIO provides reasonably high-level APIs for everything from sockets and files to D-Bus and Gio.DesktopAppInfo.

Well that's something new. Must be a circular dependency between glib-2.82.4,2 and gobject-introspection@bootstrap, but I'm not entirely sure which port to file a bug against; I suspect gobject-introspection.
I have not blogged or talked about the follow-up work to my "GType Next" blog post that I've been doing in my spare time, mainly because it is happening *in my spare time*, and I don't want to give false impressions to people; the other reason is that the time consuming bit is not writing a bunch of code, but it's planning ahead, because the goal is to avoid breaking stuff at all costs…
