Bug Description
gtk softwares need gio to be able to do things like getting access to non local urls, proxy, dconf settings (though that's another topic needing more work, ...)
if you want that to work you need to
- include the gio plugins (gvfs, dconf, proxy, ...)
- generate a cache (or ship a static one in the source and copy it)
- set the environment variable GIO_MODULE_
ideally snapcraft would do that for you

I think ideally there should be a "desktop" framework that would include the complete Qt and GTK stacks.
