This is a bug fix release and is source and binary compatible
with 2.4.0. The main reason for this release is a bug in the routines 
converting between filenames and URIs, which can cause problems when
used with filenames which are not encoded in UTF-8.

What is GLib 
============

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects
such as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C,
portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as
an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.

More information about GLib is available at:
