Git Version info could not be read

[MaexPow]

I went trough the installation and installed all the necessary packages including ninja and the ntk replacement that was posted in this forum.
meson build is set up.
I went to cd build
After I type ninja i get the following:
_[1/3] Generating src/version.hxx with a custom command
_

After I type ./luppp i get the following:
[Luppp] main:78: Git: Version info could not be read.
[Luppp] main:94: Built with BUILD_TESTS enabled
[Luppp] Gui:460: Loaded preferences
Speicherzugriffsfehler (Speicherabzug geschrieben)

I checked and installed git
when I use the command git --version my terminal shows me:
git version 2.34.1

How to get Lupp running

Hi,

The "Segfault" error (Speicherabzug) is not due to the git version info not being read. I'm not sure why Luppp is segfaulting (aka, accessing a bad/NULL pointer in the C language..) Would you describe the system that you're running? (What version of JACK, do other apps work as expected?)

Are you familiar with C debugging at all, or would you be willing to learn? With a few commands, we might be able to root-cause why this segfault is happening... Luppp works fine here - so right now I cannot reproduce the issue to help/fix it..

Regards, -Harry

I reinstalled Jack and get the following:

You don't appear to have a sane system configuration. It is very likely that you
encounter xruns. Please apply all the above mentioned changes and start jack again!

Okay I am using Ubuntu 22.04, when i check my Jack Version by using command: jackd -V i get the following output:
jackd version 0.125.0rc1 tmpdir /dev/shm protocol 25

I followed the instructions from the previous output (adding the line to limits.conf) and afterwards adding myself to audio group.
Now the output on trying to start Luppp is like that:

[Luppp] main:78: Git: Version info could not be read.
[Luppp] main:94: Built with BUILD_TESTS enabled
