This one is problematic: for the package to work the user has to define export GI_TYPELIB_PATH=~/.guix-profile/lib/girepository-1.0 and export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/.guix-profile/lib The former is required to instruct 'gobject-introspection' where to find typelib files and should be fine, but I'm not sure how to display a message telling this at the end of the installation. The latter is a hack. As discussed on another thread, the typelib files have references to dynamic libraries and they do not include the full path. We are looking into a patch to add the full path into the typelib files, however, the patch only works on newer versions of 'gobject-introspection' which breaks several other packages. Setting this environment variable should be a temporary solution. Regards, Fede
