Dear Maintainer,
When using gdebi to install deb files (for specific examples, thorium-browser
and xfce4-docklike-plugin), gdebi does not let me install the package, saying:

Status:
Error: Depenedancy is not satisfiable libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.39.4)

This does not occur when installing the package with apt, which installs it
without complaint.
When running apt show libglib, it reports that it is a virtual package, but
with -a, it reports version 2.78.4-1
I am using the debian testing repositories.
This did not happen until about a month ago.
