Unable to build

[spheenik]

Hi,

I cloned, issued pnpm i -r to recursively fetch node dependencies, then meson setup build && cd build, then meson compile which gives me:

➜  ~ cd projects/ags/build 
➜  build git:(main) ✗ meson compile

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

What did I do wrong?

I had a look and noticed not all depencencies are listed in the package.json. add this to the devDependencies in package.json:

"@girs/gjs": "^3.2.6",
"@girs/cairo-1.0": "^1.0.0-3.2.6",

those dependencies are not listed there, therefore pnpm wont install them, npm on the other hand does.

[spheenik]

Yes, that worked. Question is why npm installs dependencies that are not listed... Thank you anyway!

[kotontrion]

I'm not 100% sure about this, but my guess is that because all of @girs is in the same repository, npm just pulls the whole repository, while pnpm just pulls the specified packages.
