Try installing the gettext package on your distribution. Which one are you running?

According to this issue it seems that gettext needs to be installed so I'll add it as a build dependency.

I am in ubuntu :)

now my problem is "Run-time dependency gtk4 found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)"

That's probably because you don't have GTK4 development files installed (on Ubuntu that might be libgtk-4-dev but I can't be sure). You'll need to install all dev dependencies for the app. You can find out which packages you're missing by putting the error that pops up into Google.

Also, I'd recommend building the app with flatpak if you're doing it of development purposes. It's the easiest way to do it and compatible on most of the popular distros. I'm using Gnome Builder for developing it since it also can build the app with flatpak.
