Control: reassign -1 libfprint-dev 1:0.8.2-1
Control: retitle -1 libfprint-dev: pkg-config dependencies are not package dependencies
Control: affects -1 src:fprintd src:fprint-demo

The actual error is snipped:

...
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for FPRINT... no
configure: error: Package requirements (libfprint > 0.1.0) were not met:

Package 'libusb-1.0', required by 'libfprint', not found
...


libfprint-dev lacks dependencies for everything meson adds in Requires.private:

$ grep Requires.private /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libfprint.pc
Requires.private: glib-2.0 >=  2.28, libusb-1.0 >=  0.9.1, nss, pixman-1
$ pkgconf --cflags libfprint
-I/usr/include/libfprint -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/libusb-1.0 -I/usr/include/nss -I/usr/include/nspr -I/usr/include/pixman-1
