Thanks for looking into it! Looks like, we can only wait for an upstream fix!

@christian-heusel The bug is fixed upstream at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/perl-glib-object-introspection/-/commit/eef3b1f8662bf76095987eeef41308094693cf3e but there is no new release yet. I asked upstream when a new release is expected.

fixed in perl-glib-object-introspection 0.050-2 by backporting the patch from master
