atk fails to build.  See:

  http://hydra.gnu.org/build/172242

The problem was introduced between 427476d (works) and 5a4753a (fails),
probably one of these two commits:

5a4753a * gnu: gobject-introspection: Define search path for typelib files.
6671724 * gnu: gobject-introspection: Update to 1.42.0 and add new patch.

Here's the relevant section of build output:

It turns out that upgrading 'gobject-introspection' broke lots of
libraries that use it.  Updating 'atk' to the latest version fixed it.
Ditto for 'pango'.  I'm currently working on updating the affected
packages.

It turned out that there were too many broken dependencies, including
eudev, whose latest version fails to build.  For now, it has been fixed
by reverting the gobject-introspection update in
6c2cf86edb04adb3a74bf4099fd9a8ad4f8c5ae1.

I'm closing this bug.
