Hello,

I am trying to run GIMP 3.0 and I am getting the following error during
querying the plugins:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

After those GLib-CRITICAL message it just hangs and I have to ^C it.

I've made the GI_TYPELIB_PATH wrapping in our gimp package exact (=)
instead of as a suffix (making it as a prefix probably would have worked
too), it should resolve the problem that you have.  See commit 2b4680c6c17.
