The meson build doesn't tell you what tool is missing when trying to build the docs (and you don't have it in the path.. sigh), it just tells you that something is missing. Attached is a small patch that at least lists what's expected -- I'm not sure if this is the way to go, or if we should somehow list the individual tools that are failing here?
