Compilation failure with Vala 0.50.0
Building gnome-contacts with vala 0.50.0 fails:
../src/contacts-avatar-utils.vala:129.11-129.20: error: syntax error, no expression allowed between array brackets
const double[,3] GNOME_COLOR_PALETTE = {
^^^^^^^^^^This fails because of this patch in vala that bubbles up the syntax error in the compiler:
