ninja command error on crostini

    i'm building TPT on crostini and when running 

    "meson build-debug
    cd build-debug
    ninja"

    ninja returns

    "ninja: error: loading 'build.ninja': No such file or directory"

    anyone know why?

    Did the meson command work successfully?

    If you type "ls build-debug" do you see a file "build.ninja" that was generated from meson?

    Something failed, we'll need to see the original error to debug this.

    You need to run these commands from the directory containing the TPT Source code
