[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
It was reported in IRC, that Meld is having troubles starting up. After
some building on my own I've decided to fix it.

Caveat: Running `guix build meld` followed by `/gnu/store/.../bin/meld`
will lead to a crash -- it seems GSettings is having some trouble.
`guix environment --ad-hoc meld` should work, though.

Regards,

Leo

Thanks!  I've pushed this fix since it's already improving things a lot!

It might make sense to investigate the other problem as well.
Could you open a bug about that by E-Mailing to bug-guix <at> gnu.org ?
