Insufficient environment wrappers

Some packages -- such as meld after the startup fix -- fail to use

important resources when simply called from their build directory. For

instance, meld aborts inside a call to `g_log` by

`g_settings_set_property`. In the case of meld, it is sufficient to run

the program inside an ad-hoc environment -- other packages may require

to be installed in the user profile.

This is… true, and has been a source of personal annoyance for

years :-)

As it is, this bug report is a bit vague, almost a meta-bug (‘many

packages have bugs’). Because *many* packages have this problem,

for different reasons. Most instances are pretty easy to fix once

you find out the exact problem, but there's no one-size-fits-all

solution.

Do you have any ideas to make it more actionable?

I fixed this specific example in

Thanks for the report!

I concede, that the initial formulation was a bit too vague and that

meta bugs are not that good unless they can easily be addressed.

Thanks :)
