------- Additional Comments from Dan Winship <danw at gnome.org>
Originally the introspection docs said you were always supposed to install .gir
and .typelib files into gobject-introspection's prefix. This got fixed, and now
they say you're supposed to install them into your own prefix (and, if
necessary, set GI_TYPELIB_PATH to include that prefix). WebKit is doing it
wrong. This breaks, eg, non-root jhbuild installs.
