I got meta/build to build it too (see below) with the same error.
For that I filed a bug against gulp: https://bugs.debian.org/948994

Yes, meta/build works if I launch the build executable with full path:

/root/meta/build

or as you did setting the PATH:

export PATH=/root/meta:$PATH
build

in both cases, the SBUILD_CONFIG contains the full path:
SBUILD_CONFIG = /root/meta/sbuild_experimental.conf

if I launch it with a relative path:

../../meta/build

the SBUILD_CONFIG also has the relative path:
SBUILD_CONFIG = ../../meta/sbuild_experimental.conf

and it somehow fails to add the experimental repo.

I propose to amend the meta/build-and-setup script to use realpath before dirname as in this MR:
https://salsa.debian.org/ruby-team/meta/merge_requests/8

Finally there is no way to create issues in the https://salsa.debian.org/ruby-team/meta repo, what is the preferred way to provide feedback ?
For example shellcheck returns a great number of warnings on that script, I suggest fixing them.
