After some more searching I had to install the app meson which got me further into the build and then it errored out and then I had to install gperf which has got me further into the build and it is still going so maybe that 2 apps fixed it.   I thought the ./scripts/uni-get-dependencies.sh would have installed anything that was required for building?
