Looks like the ABI has been quite stable, which I think is something we can expect going forward since the GLib/Gtk+ folks are generally pretty careful about that stuff. In my personal packages I generally pin things "just in case" but if that adds to hassles on the conda-forge end, I don't think pinning is actually necessary.

Seems we are pinning
gobject-introspection
in some cases and not others. Should it be pinned? If so to what? FWIW here is the ABI report.@jakirkham commented on Thu Sep 07 2017

Maybe just require
1.45.3
or greater as that is the last time a symbol was added?@pkgw commented on Tue Jan 02 2018
Sure, that seems like a fine policy.
