Fixed, needed package libgirepository1.0-dev

[bilelmoussaoui]

Is everything working as expected right now? :)

[theel0ja]

No, problem with mesonbuild.modules.i18n...

You must have something missing with your meson installation :( https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/wiki/i18n-module Try using sudo pip3 install meson or sudo pip3 install meson --upgrade

[theel0ja]

It works! :)

[bilelmoussaoui]

Perfect! :)
