Test case failures on debian 11 (bullseye)

[chromis]

Hello,

I managed to install Gnome::Gtk3 on my system, albeit with the --force-test option.

I got the following two errors:

===> Testing: Gnome::Glib:ver<0.20.6>

Command pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0 emits 2.66.8 on my system.

The second error:

This is on Rakudo v2022.07, running on debian 11.

Thanks for your time and effort that makes this module possible!

Thank you for mentioning the errors.

The version I have now for glib is 2.70.5 and for gtk3 is 3.24.34. The glib docs say for this subroutine that it is available since: 2.70, so check this and upgrade the lib.

The second error is probably caused by not having a mapping of the text/plain mime-type to some application such as an editor of some sort. This is tested here in that part of the program. Try to create a mapping to an application and run this particular test again. In the next version, I will test for undefined strings returning from the call.
