Having trouble building Rofi.

[TheXnlyGhxst]

I am attempting to package rofi for the moss package manager on AerynOS, but I keep getting this error in the build process:

ERROR: Subproject libgwater is buildable: NO
meson.build:69:12: ERROR: Subproject exists but has no meson.build file.

Anyone have any idea how to fix this? I double checked to make sure I have all the correct dependencies specified:

builddeps   :
    - binary(bison)
    - binary(flex)
    - binary(wayland-scanner)
    - pkgconfig(bash-completion)
    - pkgconfig(cairo)
    - pkgconfig(cairo-xcb)
    - pkgconfig(check)
    - pkgconfig(gdk-pixbuf-2.0)
    - pkgconfig(gio-unix-2.0)

    - pkgconfig(libstartup-notification-1.0)
    - pkgconfig(pango)
    - pkgconfig(pangocairo)

    - pkgconfig(wayland-cursor)
    - pkgconfig(wayland-protocols)

I need more information. What are you building? GIT or release? if you are trying to build release make sure you grab the developer provided tarball, not the autogenerated github ones (those don't have submodules)

[TheXnlyGhxst]

I'm using the 2.0.0 release, I'll try what you suggested.

Thank you, using the rofi tarball instead of the source tarball did the trick.
