This is a bug fix release in the 2.18 series.

 

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects

such as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C,

portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as

an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.
