(cmake) Could NOT find LibSoup: Found unsuitable version "" ...

[Albretch Mueller <lbrtchx@gmail.com>]

 even though I have installed libsoup or probably I should install it
as part of some other package? I couldn't make sense of that problem:

 https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=bullseye&section=all&arch=any&searchon=all&keywords=LibSoup

 Why would that be happening at all?

 The error log is also telling me about "OptionsGTK", but I couldn't
make sense of it either.

 https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=bullseye&section=all&arch=any&searchon=all&keywords=OptionsGTK

 Could those kinds of problems relate to installing some relatively
heavy duty software (webkit2) on WSL?
