when configuring babl-1.72 I get:

g-ir-scanner is provided by gobject-introspection. Something weird
going on here.
I think I'll stay with version 1.66 for the moment.

I saw on gimp-dev earlier this month that gimp-2.99 (git) requires
introspection, so I'm not surprised that the latest babl release also
needs that.
From meson_options.txt:
option('enable-gir', type: 'boolean', value: true, description:
'enable GObject-Introspection (GIR)')
so it is not required. Since gimp will soon require it, I'll mate
gobject recommended in babl.
I can confirm that it does work with gobject-introspection installed.
In the command explanation section you could add a note about how to turn off
introspection support if g-i is not installed.
If it's recommended, we usually let the user figure out how to not use
it. In this case babl is only used by gegl and gegl is only used by
gimp. If gimp requires g-i, then why would you not want it?
