+#### Rust package built with `meson` {#rust-package-built-with-meson}
+
+Some projects, especially GNOME applications, are built with the Meson Build System instead of calling Cargo directly. Using `rustPlatform.buildRustPackage` may successfully build the main program, but related files will be missing. Instead, you need to set up Cargo dependencies with `fetchCargoTarball` and `cargoSetupHook` and leave the rest to Meson. `rust` and `cargo` are still needed in `nativeBuildInputs` for Meson to use.
