[OE-core] meta-gir issues and maintenance

[Martin Jansa]

Hi Tomas, all,

I was trying to use meta-gir in Dizzy release and found out that last
commit in this layer is 16 months ago and many .bbappends no longer
match with their recipes.

Was this layer superseded by something else or you just didn't have time
to update it for newer Yocto releases?

Even the base meta-gir layer have issue with g-ir-core recipe which is
currently failing with Dizzy release (it seems to be working fine with
Dylan):

mx bbappend is surprisingly newer than what is in oe-core and was probably meant for meta-guacamayo layer:
http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/recipe/3286/
there is also mx-2.0 recipe in meta-clutter:
http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/recipe/4952/

mutter is only in meta-clutter:
http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/recipe/4895/

gsettings-desktop-schemas were moved to meta-gnome, so it should be moved from meta-gir-core as well
meta-openembedded/meta-gnome/recipes-gnome/gsettings-desktop-schemas/gsettings-desktop-schemas_3.14.1.bb

Are there any plans to update it?

Thanks,
