I've checked the official git repo of m17n-lib located at:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/m17n/m17n-lib.git, and find that the
latest version of libm17n already been installed on the system:

$ dpkg -l | grep libm17n
ii  libm17n-0:amd64                            1.8.0-2
            amd64        multilingual text processing library -
runtime
ii  libm17n-dev:amd64                          1.8.0-2
            amd64        multilingual text processing library -
