Failed to compile on Debian

[jaezudev]

I tried compiling from source on Debian 11 (Bullseye). I have all required packages installed, but every time I try to make, it just throws these errors.

Im on vacation currently and wont be back until around the end of the month so if someone else wants to take a look it’d be appreciated

These wayland headers are created by wayland scanner version 1.20.0 and needs to include which is provided by the system. Your version of wayland-client is too old to be built with the files generated by the newer wayland-scanner. We need to change the make file to call the system's wayland-scanner to create compatible header files instead of baking in the headers.

Try and see if #128 will fix the build for you.
