can't compile

[OdedNeoja]

After following the guide I always come to this result

[omerts]

Did you install the pylon software suite?

[OdedNeoja]

Have you found the solution? I have the same issue. I installed the pylon software suite from the official website, followed the installation instructions of gstream, but I get the same error of 'dependency "pylon" not found'.

I have tried moving to newer versions of meson, messing with environment variables, and applying arguments to commands. Nothing worked for me. Here are the logs of the issue. Maybe someone can assist
