Are the pygtk changes directly related to the introspection changes? If
not then maybe they should happen in another patch set.

They are; pygtk requires an old (2.x) non-introspection based version of pygobject, and the introspection patchset updates pygobject to latest 3.x release which is a much thinner layer on top of libgirepository and is incompatible with pygtk.

Oh I see that now: It's patch 23 in the series for anyone else looking. I think this should be pointed out more visibly: the patchset essentially removes gtk2 python support, a feature we've had so far.

Maintaining python-gobject-2 and python-gtk-2 should be possible alongside the GI-based versions, but A) it only makes sense if there's real demand and B) it obviously doesn't have to happen in oe-core.
