Since meson was updated it has been failing to build systemd on Travis CI with

$ meson --version
0.54.0

$ ninja --version
1.5.1

$ meson build
...
ERROR: Could not detect Ninja v1.5 or newer
...

I'll update ninja there but it would be great if the error message was a little bit more specific.

Solved by installing ninja by pip3

pip3 install ninja meson

Currently it fails with "ERROR: Could not detect Ninja v1.5 or newer" despite Ninja being
installed. According to mesonbuild/meson#6867, this might help.
