Please refer to 1.1. Meson Complains About Missing Dependencies . I slove the problem with this method. You may try it.

Thanks for suggestion , i had tried the same , but still then facing the same issue , the problem here is the meson is still taking the /usr/bin/pkg-config instead of /opt/mellanox/doca/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig ,

I had found the solution , cmakes was missing , so i had to install them and set the paths given in the troubleshooting guide as suggested in 1.1. Meson Complains About Missing Dependencies

and also pkg config path was updated after running below command

echo $(pkg-config --variable pc_path pkg-config)${PKG_CONFIG_PATH:+:}${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}
