Hi, not sure where is the bug but as a workaround you can define
GI_TYPELIB_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gnome-builder/girepository-1.0/
gnome-builder
to make gi repository find the private library
This suggests that gnome-builder should be calling
gi_repository_prepend_search_path() to add that directory to the search
path. It seems that it *does* call
gi_repository_prepend_search_path (ide_get_gir_repository (),
PACKAGE_LIBDIR"/gnome-builder/girepository-1.0");
in at least some code paths, but perhaps that isn't always reached, or
perhaps it isn't happening early enough?
