Which is normal, since it is GEGL 0.4, not 0.3. ;-)

And yes, you are right. The GEGL dependency in libmypaint is GEGL v0.3, and
I am not sure that will change soon, since libmypaint developers are mostly
working on libmypaint v2 now. You can still ask them if they would make a
libmypaint v1 with updated GEGL dep.

BUT for the time being, it is not much a problem because (1) GEGL v0.3 and
v0.4 can be installed next to each other (hence the different namespace)
and (2) you don't have to build libmypaint with GEGL. libmypaint-gegl is
not used by GIMP in any way to this day.
So just build libmypaint with --disable-gegl and don't care about
installing GEGL v0.3.

libmypaint version is right. This is the GEGL version whose version you did
not correctly installed.
