Error Updating #177

Open marcdornan opened 1 week ago

marcdornan commented 1 week ago

I was updating mwptools and ninja install resulted in this error: error: Package `libmosquitto' not found in specified Vala API directories or GObject-Introspection GIR directories Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

Could this be related to me updating meson as ninja squawked that it was too out of date when I first tried.

Any ideas? I posted this in rcgroups as well as I was not sure how often you looked at this.

It helps to state which distro you're using .... they are all different.

I'd guess that either:

You don't have the -dev package for libmosquitto installed (f your distro makes such a distinction) ; and / or
You need to blow away the old _build (or build depending on when you set things up) directory and re-run the meson phase from scratch.

There's no harm in also ensuring the OS is completely up to date as well.

And you're right, I look a RCG about once a month, so Github issues are much preferred.

Sorry. Ubuntu 20.04. I will work through your suggestions.

Edit -- I just went ahead and did the obvious thing and re-ran the install script! All good now.

Edit2 -- I left a longish post for your attention on rcgroups!
