Hi Pippin, and thanks! for the typelib hints. Sadly that didn't fix the 
terminal complaints, so maybe I'm still doing something wrong, or maybe 
more paths are needed, or maybe the code itself has issues.

On Debian Sid in my GIMP-2.99 prefix, the babl/GEGL typelibs are here:

   $PREFIX/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/girepository-1.0/

and the GIMP typelib is here:

   $PREFIX/lib/girepository-1.0

Unfortunately, setting up my prefix like this:

PREFIX=$HOME/code-install/gimp299/install
export SRC_DIR=/home/elle/code-build/gimp299/build
export PATH=$PREFIX/bin:$PATH
export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I $PREFIX/share/aclocal"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PREFIX/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PREFIX/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PREFIX/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export 
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PREFIX/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PREFIX/share/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export 
GI_TYPELIB_PATH=$PREFIX/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/girepository-1.0:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export GI_TYPELIB_PATH=$PREFIX/lib/girepository-1.0:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export 
XDG_DATA_DIRS="$XDG_DATA_DIRS:$PREFIX/share:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/"

and then rebuilding/installing babl/GEGL/GIMP-2.99 from scratch,

and then running GIMP-2.99, still results in typelib errors printed to 
the terminal (the other errors disappeared after updating GIMP 
yesterday, so not related to these remaining errors). Any ideas on what 
still needs to be changed? Did I set up the prefix correctly? Anything 
else needed?

Maybe there's an issue in the plug-in code for the affected plug-ins?

Maybe the python-related errors mean something needs to be added for python?

Best,
Elle

Here's the terminal output on starting the rebuilt/installed 
babl/GEGL/GIMP-2.99
