This is an unstable release of Glib::Object::Introspection, and as
such, it won't show up in the "normal" CPAN index.  The changes in
this version require the most recent unstable release of the Glib Perl
module (1.310) to be installed before installing this version of
G:O:I.

To install both modules via the CPAN module shell:

cpan[1]> install XAOC/Glib-1.310.tar.gz
cpan[2]> install XAOC/Glib-Object-Introspection-0.029.tar.gz

To install both modules via App::cpanminus' "cpanm" command:

cpanm XAOC/Glib-1.310.tar.gz XAOC/Glib-Object-Introspection-0.029.tar.gz

You can also browse the modules on MetaCPAN or search.cpan.org, but on
MetaCPAN, you must use the "Jump to version" dropdown on the left side
of the page to select unstable versions of modules (or jump directly
to the version you want by typing in the URL in your browser's address
bar).  Both modules show up as the most current versions on
search.cpan.org.

libraries.  Examples include gtk+, webkit, libsoup and many more.
