[Bug default/24690] Changes to types not reachable from global functions and variables are not detected



https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24690

--- Comment #3 from Mathieu Bridon <bochecha at daitauha dot fr> ---
> If the --headers-dir{1,2} option is also used, then abidiff will thus show you changes on GObject class types that are declared in public headers.  Otherwise, if --headers-dir{1,2} is *not* specified, then abidiff will show you changes on *all* the types of the binary.  So you really want the later option, or some sort of suppression specification.

I'm confused, why would we want the latter? Ignoring private types seems like
the right thing to do in most cases…

Would your changes still catch the Flatpak ABI break with the
`--headers-dir{1,2}` options?
