Public bug reported: Artful version of budgie-desktop has recently been sync'd from Debian Experimental.
It has failed to build. Further investigations has revealed that the current version of meson in Artful proposed is the culprit. Upstream has also other reports of Vala based apps failing to compile https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1939 The version of meson in Universe is ok (v0.40.1) Looking upstream there are numerous regressions reported for v0.41.0 that are due to be fixed for v0.41.1 - it is unknown when v0.41.1 is going to be released nor if that version will resolve current Vala based build issues.
