One should get a message about GI_TYPELIB_PATH, but only if
gobject-introspection is also installed. Not sure if that helps.

Yes, right.
Speaking of which, could you (or Mark?) create a branch with all the
updates that you did, so we keep track of it?

The patch also move python-pyparsing from ‘inputs’ to
‘propagated-inputs’, so it would be good to mention it.

Could you add a comment saying why they’re here?

This doesn’t sound GTK-related, no?
