Whoops, wrong list - sending to -dev
Not doing very well on my current build (meson/ninja doesn't like
being built in a C or POSIX locale, at least re glib, but the book
says to build as a user (and therefore with a UTF-8 locale), so that
part was my problem).  But I finally got to gtk+-3.22.26 and

Meson needs UTF-8 locale, that has been known for a while now. There's also a bug report about it.

configure failed:

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

etc.

In the book I see that libxkbcommon is listed as optional, that
appears to now be incorrect.  Until now I've only built it as a
dependency for qt5, and since I like to make progress in my build
I've been doing that at a much later stage.


The --enable-wayland-backend switch pulls those deps. From memory, non-systemd Book used --disable-wayland-backend, that's why it is listed as optional. But now I see that --enable-wayland-backend is used in both systemd and sysv books, so you're right about it being required (recommended).
