ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

The make file is looking for g-ir-scanner at /home/matuschd/buildroot-2020.05-rc1/output/host/bin/../arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf/sysroot/home/matuschd/buildroot-2020.05-rc1/output/host/bin/g-ir-scanner

However, the binary is at /home/matuschd/buildroot-2020.05-rc1//output/host/arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf/sysroot/usr/bin/g-ir-scanner

It seems for some unknown reason, $HOME is inserted into the path which seems to be incorrect

Just a correction: Problem is not the GObject introspection package, but GStreamer

--- Comment #2 from Fabrice Fontaine <[email protected]> --- Hi,

Thanks for the bug report, this is a known issue, all meson packages fail to build with gobject-introspection.

You can find a patch fixing this issue here:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/patch/20200502060435.23004-1-james.hilliard1 at gmail.com/.

However, this patch has not been merged and probably won't be. James waits for
the next meson release before sending an updated version of this patch (see
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/patch/20200315172459.881615-2-aduskett at gmail.com/)

Best Regards,

Fabrice
