Description:
Packages that use dbus-binding-tool to generate headers at build time (including dbus-glib itself) don't build anymore with glib2 2.54:

In file included from example-service.c:59:0:
example-service-glue.h:5:42: error: ‘dbus_glib_marshal_some_object_BOOLEAN__STRING_POINTER_POINTER’ undeclared here (not in a function)
{ (GCallback) some_object_hello_world, dbus_glib_marshal_some_object_BOOLEAN__STRING_POINTER_POINTER, 0 },
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
example-service-glue.h:6:40: error: ‘dbus_glib_marshal_some_object_BOOLEAN__POINTER_POINTER’ undeclared here (not in a function); did you mean ‘dbus_glib_marshal_some_object_BOOLEAN__STRING_POINTER_POINTER’?

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  python is added to makedepends for dbus-glib.

This is because glib 2.54 ported glib-genmarshall to python. dbus-glib builds fine when adding python to makedepends, probably other software that fails like this needs the same fix. File bugs for packages that fail to build because of this.
