It tries to build the totem-rotation-plugin which requires the
src/Totem-1.0.gir file.  However src/Totem-1.0.gir has not been
generated yet.

The offending rule in the generated build.ninja file is this

build src/plugins/sample-vala/sample-vala <at> sha/totem-sample-vala-plugin.c src/plugins/sample-vala/sample-vala.h src/plugins/sample-vala/sample-vala.vapi: vala_COMPILER ../totem-3.26.0/src/plugins/sample-vala/totem-sample-vala-plugin.vala

which should instead read

build src/plugins/sample-vala/sample-vala <at> sha/totem-sample-vala-plugin.c src/plugins/sample-vala/sample-vala.h
src/plugins/sample-vala/sample-vala.vapi: vala_COMPILER ../totem-3.26.0/src/plugins/sample-vala/totem-sample-vala-plugin.vala || src/Totem-1.0.gir

Unforunately I don't know enough about meson and ninja to figure out how
to fix this.

It also builds successfully if you force ninja to only use one thread.

This should probably be reported upstream.  Other distros may not notice
this if valac picks up the system Totem-1.0.gir if Totem is already
installed.

Good catch!  I completed the commit log and applied, thanks.

If you haven’t already, could you report it upstream?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Adding more information for future readers.

Turns out this is an upstream problem with the meson build system.

It was reported upstream but closed here:
