Hi,

I'm not used to cross compilation, but I guess you need g-ir-scanner on the build machine. Try to install the gobject-introspection package on it.

[alexvatti]

Case 1: Without enable - "introspection" Build goes fine and but we need aravis-typelib

Case 2: For that I enabled: EXTRA_OEMESON = "-Dintrospection=enabled"

Getting following error: Program g-ir-scanner found: NO src/meson.build:297:2: ERROR: Program(s) ['g-ir-scanner'] not found or not executable

When I grep and find "g-ir-scanner" in build directory,

We mentioned the following are required for build dependency:

DEPENDS=" \ gstreamer1.0 \ gstreamer1.0-plugins-base \ libxml2 \ glib-2.0 \ glib-2.0-native \ gtk-doc \ gobject-introspection \ intltool-native \ "
