More information

I got the package to build with the following commands:

$ python3 -m venv venv
$ . venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ pip install pip --upgrade
[...]
(venv) $ python -c "from gi.repository import GLib"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gi'
(venv) $ sudo apt install libgirepository1.0-dev gcc libcairo2-dev pkg-config python3-dev gir1.2-gtk-3.0
(venv) $ pip install PyGObject

The key piece in this seems to be the list of packages required which is:

sudo apt install libgirepository1.0-dev gcc libcairo2-dev pkg-config python3-dev gir1.2-gtk-3.0

Looks like you meant PyGobject - I've installed the requirements for that and it's now in the build queue.

Duplicate of #336

Yes, it looks like I did mean PyGObject Damn that case sensitivity :-(

Thank you.
