WARNING: Running the setup command as `meson [options]` instead of `meson setup [options]` is ambiguous and deprecated.

@core ➜ wf-shell git:(master) sudo apt install wayfire
wayfire is already the newest version (0.9.0-2build2).

Reproduce the failure with meson build --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release and inspect meson.build:16:17, where the Wayfire dependency is declared. Compare Meson's pkg-config and CMake lookup with the installed Wayfire package; done means the dependency is detected and the build setup proceeds past this error.
