Thanks! So for current (as of last week) Debian Sid and current 
babl/GEGL/GIMP-2.99 (as of this morning), XDG_DATA_DIRS really does need 
to be set.

But for Debian Testing, it seems XDG_DATA_DIRS shouldn't be set. I 
wonder what has changed between Debian Testing and Sid.

Anyone know what an XDG_DATA_DIRS actually is? Also, what is this "gir" 
thing that GEGL was looking for?
