Is there a work-around available for this or is it a showstopper? Maybe allowing
the recipe to access some directories outside the sandbox would help?
I tried recompiling KDE-Base-Workspace and am getting a similar error concerning
org.kde.Solid.Networking.Client.xml now.  :/

Wow, that was taking up a lot of space!

Looks like shared-mime-info lacks the Perl-XML-Parser dependency. I installed it
with CPAN so it works now - didn't realize there were recipes for perl modules.

@Danielle
didn't know you can use commas to specify multiple restrictions on a dependency
- that's a good one to know

@Jonas
eagerly awaiting the extra option to Compile ;)
