Description Stef Walter 2013-11-10 21:02:57 UTC 
This keeps coming up ... but we need a way to override the location that gio
loads its modules from. This is especially important when doing testing,
as it's otherwise not possible to build a predictable environment.

In particular this causes leaks from the installed version of gvfs to
prevent testing for leaks in gio.

When testing (and valgrinding) we need to have a known set of modules
loaded.

This is missing the documentation part. We have a list of all env vars affecting GIO operation in docs/reference/gio/overview.xml, in the section 'Running GIO applications'.
