A few other terminals in this file already do that to expose the
terminfo database. Without it, other programs will complain about
the "unknown terminal: foot".

* gnu/packages/terminals.scm (foot): Export TERMINFO_DIRS.

Oh, my bad, I guess I can't search :)
I see that some discussion has already happened and a proper solution
isn't as simple as that. Let's close this one then.
