Actually, there was an interval where gegl:text would get built without
checking this dependency, so it's possible that this is a leftover from
an earlier build (although that would be weird if this problem only
started recently.)  You can manually remove "text.so" (and make sure
that it's not getting reinstalled by a GEGL "make install") if that's
the case.  It shouldn't be a problem for GIMP for now, but in the long
run it's better to get it built.
