Currently for a simple GTK application of mine, on other distros I run
it by

dont-hang

but on Guix I have to run it with:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/gnu/store/b9p5rhhci7w1zgvv4j0fm2izk86cgnyd-gtk+-3.24.7/lib:/gnu/store/z7myqdqz5i4ahw57l5hagdkmzwz5g2wv-pango-1.42.4/lib:/gnu/store/5yaa39a8rvq8xdv8h37n29sxfmnlcv12-atk-2.32.0/lib:/gnu/store/4d8rc6vjkhsk1b20rigz0nzl7zffn4b5-cairo-1.16.0/lib:/gnu/store/h7wv1qgpascffzi5xlpagnc0hpiv2523-gdk-pixbuf+svg-2.38.1/lib:/gnu/store/0q9pq9flr76rh4bv2524niknknnl2kvq-glib-2.56.3/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH dont-hang

Adding ~/.local/bin to the path would remove the small part on the
right.  Patching ninja could probably remove the need for
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
