Comment:

 I think this is probably the same unicode problem that was reported
 against libgda5.  See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788283
 for the issue and ryandesigns fix.

 The root cause is that glib-mkenums as been re-coded using python in the
 latest version of glib 2.54.0 and this causes it to require utf8 encoded
 text as input.  Will take a look.

 Concerning gegl being outdated.  We provide several versions of gegl as
 required by different dependents.  In particular gegl (version 0.2.x) is
 still required by gimp2.  However, the latest versions of gegl is provided
 by port gegl-0.3 and a development version is provided as gegl-devel
 providing a recent git master of the 0.3 develment branch.  So I think all
 bases are covered.

 Current gegl versions are
   * gegl @0.2.0_24
   * gegl-0.3 @0.3.20_1
   * gegl-devel @0.3.21-20170906

 The 0.2 and 0.3 versions install in parallel without conflict.
