Building geary from developer docs with gnome 3.30. libxml2 not found dependency error.
I was following this:
Installed gnome builder stable via flatpak:
3.30.1 flatpak-stable
I pulled down geary as noted in the link, and tried to build it, and got this error:
ImportError File "/run/build/gnome-doc-utils/doc/gnome-doc-make/../../xml2po/xml2po/xml2po", line 191, in <module>

I am new to flatpak, gnome builder, and gnome dev. Seems the python module libxml2 is missing, but I'm not sure where that dependency needs to be put into, in the geary project structure. Please advise.
