I bet this has to do with XDG_DATA_DIRS not being set by the `guix
shell` invocation.  Can you try `guix shell glib gnome-disk-utility`
instead?

That does work. Not great UX. Can we either make it obvious that glib
needs to be in the environment, or just remove the need to explicitly
include it?

Some packages use 'wrap-program' to set GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR.  See,
e.g. the 'darktable' package.
