Build failing on openSUSE Tumbleweed

[TheRealDannyBoy]

I've been attempting to build an openSUSE package for Warpinator. However, both rpmbuild and manual builds fail during the compile stage. The exact output of ninja -vC builddir is shown below:

ninja: Entering directory `builddir'
[1/1] /usr/bin/meson --internal msgfmthelper ../data/org.x.warpinator.policy.in.in data/org.x.warpinator.policy xml /home/daniel/documents/src/warpinator/po

msgfmt: cannot locate ITS rules for ../data/org.x.warpinator.policy.in.in
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

I have been unsuccessful in searching for what exactly an ITS rule is. Any help resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I think maybe there's a missing dependency. ITS rules tell the build system what parts of a file should be considered considered for translation. In debian-based systems these are provided by policykit-1 for this particular file.

I have it as a dependency on our debian packaging, but it's not in meson's dependencies (I don't think it has a pkg-config file).

That was it, thanks. I had to install polkit-devel.

EDIT: there are some other errors; I'll leave this open for now.

Can this be closed?

Had the same error building on Debian, the missing package was libpolkit-gobject-1-dev
