It appears that glib-compile-schemas is called during the build or installation process of brasero. Inside /nix/store/...brasero/share/glib-2.0/schemas, there is a file org.gnome.brasero.gschema.xml, which has been compiled into gschemas.compiled. So this gschemas.compiled is installed into the user profile, and with the following line added to .bashrc: export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$HOME/.guix-profile/share it is found and brasero starts up. Of course, this works only as long as only one gnome program is installed, since all the different gschemas.compiled step on each other's toe. Andreas
