  1. It seems that meson devenv resets the environment as the modified LD_LIBRARY_PATH isn't available inside meson devenv.
  2. When I run the application as instructed I get (process:2288232): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 15:38:53.730: Settings schema 'net.sapples.LiveCaptions' is not installed and then it crashes.

Also, using GNOME Builder resulted in the exact same issues as it seems to run meson underneath as it is on the host system.

I was able to run the application after exporting GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR=$(pwd)/builddir/data, but I don't know if this is the right way since I'm not that familiar GTK.
