Description
I have Sticky 1.24 installed.
A line in my xsession-errors file says:
/usr/lib/sticky/sticky.py:813: DeprecationWarning: Gio.DBusConnection.register_object is deprecated
self.dbus_register_id = connection.register_object(
The corresponding documentation on https://docs.gtk.org/gio/method.DBusConnection.register_object_with_closures.html says:
Deprecated since: 2.84
Deprecated in favour of g_dbus_connection_register_object_with_closures2(), which has more binding-friendly reference counting semantics.`
There is also an issue at the pygobject gitlab page https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pygobject/-/issues/688

Research direction
Start at sticky.py line 813, where the DBus object is registered, and compare the current call with the replacement documented in the Gio.DBusConnection API. Check the related PyGObject issue for binding considerations; done means Sticky registers the object without emitting the reported deprecation warning.
