It would be good to wrap gnome-chess to include it's own share directory

in the XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable. Without that, I can't just

run it [1], but when I set that variable correctly [2], it works :)

→ /gnu/store/jv8jpq23iic13j7zdl8mdc30vcv508wh-gnome-chess-3.36.0/bin/gnome-chess

(gnome-chess:10039): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 08:31:52.482: Settings schema 'org.gnome.Chess' is not installed

Trace/breakpoint trap

→ XDG_DATA_DIRS="$XDG_DATA_DIRS:/gnu/store/jv8jpq23iic13j7zdl8mdc30vcv508wh-gnome-chess-3.36.0/share" /gnu/store/jv8jpq23iic13j7zdl8mdc30vcv508wh-gnome-chess-3.36.0/bin/gnome-chess

This wrapping is something that would automatically be done through the

glib-or-gtk-build-system, but maybe not automatically through the meson

build system.

Apart from the wrapping I mentioned above, this looks good to me :)

Thanks,

Chris

I think the meson build system has a #:glib-or-gtk? parameter to do

that.

Thanks for the review and suggestion. I've added the #glib-or-gtk? #t

argument, and it looks like the wrapping happens correctly.

Great, I've pushed this as 63406c0bfd0d016098ef593dcc8bfc412df36bea.
