--- Comment #6 from Adrian Perez <aperez at igalia.com> ---
The --include=Foo-X.Y flags will try to search for the file Foo-X.Y.gir
in the default search path, typically /usr/share/gir-1.0 -- there should
be Ubuntu packages which provide the needed files. For example in Arch
Linux one can see that the .gir files are provided either by their own
package, or gobject-introspection for the base .gir files:

  % pacman -Qo /usr/share/gir-1.0/GObject-2.0.gir      
/usr/share/gir-1.0/GObject-2.0.gir is owned by gobject-introspection 1.76.0-1
  % pacman -Qo /usr/share/gir-1.0/Gtk-3.0.gir  
/usr/share/gir-1.0/Gtk-3.0.gir is owned by gtk3 1:3.24.37-1

Checking the contents of the gobject-introspection package, it does not
include any .gir files, see:

  https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/amd64/gobject-introspection/filelist

Searching in package contents for files ending in .gir returns no results
which would contain the GObject-2.0.gir file:

  https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=focal&arch=any&searchon=contents&keywords=.gir

I haven't checked other Ubuntu versions, but at least for 20.04LTS it looks
like there is a packaging bug there.
