ninja build succeeded, and it runs.  I also noticed the copyright in the Balsa/About 
dialog is still 2016.  (There are lots of old copyright dates if you just do a "grep

to update them.)

Thanks for testing the meson build! I'm sorry you got burned by the 
'yes'/'true' thing--I did too!

The current version is really a work-in-progress. I kept everything very close 
to the autotools version, so that I could easily compare the meson files with 
the autotools versions. So I kept yes|no|path for the options that allow 
specifying a path. If you look at meson_options.txt, you'll see that some 
options are boolean, with true|false values, and some are strings, with 
yes|no|path values. I should change those to true|false|path form, to avoid the 
issues that you and I faced!

The meson options should probably also be renamed. I understand that the with- 
and enable- prefixes of the autotools options are disparaged; options should be 
structured so that the '-Doption=value' configure syntax is as user-friendly as 
possible.

So, more changes are to be expected--thanks again for testing, and please 
continue to comment on the experience!

Peter
