Hard requirement on PyGObject depency version requirement or it will crash and not run #141

Description

@Azania

I found out that there is a requirement of a minimum version of PyGObject where it needs to be at least version 3.52.3 or higher. It will compile with a lower version but simply crash and do not when trying to add to the panel. This probably has somethinig to do with GIRepository class inside PyGObject going from version 2.0 to 3.0.

This has caused some issues on gentoo as that version and higher are hard masked for causing issues, see https://bugs.gentoo.org/957943 for more bugs and issues. While not entirely relevant.

While not entirely relevant nor any direct way to fix it I thought it was still good to make a notice here and maybe in the build check against version of PyGObject to be at least 3.52.3 or higher.

Kind Regards, Sarah
