Version: 0.57~rc1-1
Severity: important

While looking into providing a patch for #1118904, I noticed that the 
libgirepository1.0-dev build-dependency is marked with <!nodoc>, but 
phosh builds and installs /usr/share/gir-1.0/Phosh-0.gir (and builds 
/usr/lib/*/girepository-1.0/Phosh-0.typelib, although that isn't 
packaged for whatever reason). My next thought was "I don't think that's 
going to compile successfully", and sure enough:

>Package: phosh

>Distribution: unstable
>Machine Architecture: amd64
>Host Architecture: amd64

...
>Run-time dependency gobject-introspection-1.0 found: NO  (tried pkg-config)
>
>../src/meson.build:620:20: ERROR: Dependency "gobject-introspection-1.0" not found (tried pkg-config)

I'll see whether I can fix this as part of #1118904.
