If you want to set it in your .login, so that it also affects your
desktop session, #3 is the best IMHO.

I don't know what effect the bootstrap script has exactly,
because I'm only using pkgsrc on NetBSD.
While it is documented in the g-ir-scanner manpage, I think
that using XDG_DATA_DIRS in any build tool is wrong.
It should be either sanitized somewhere in pkgsrc/mk, or
pkgsrc/devel/gobject-introspection should be patched to
ignore it. Both are too invasive to be introduced during
the pkgsrc freeze - I'll look at it later.
Until then, I suggest to change your environment in one
of the ways you mentioned. A real fix will come soon.

best regards
Matthias
