gio-querymodules fix

February 03, 2022 — BarryK

Script '3buildeasydistro' in woofQ is supposed to create a symlink /usr/bin/gio-querymodules, to wherever 'gio-querymodules' is located. In the case of OE, that location is /usr/libexec/gio-querymodules, and 3buildeasydistro didn't look there, so the symlink didn't get created.

Repercussion was that the gio modules cache didn't get created, in /usr/lib/gio/modules. This doesn't break anything, it is just that the cache makes accessing the modules faster, as the man page explains:

So, another little buglet fixed.
