man you can't trick out your distribution especially when you don#t know *really* what you are doing either chose a different distribution, chose a newer version (no idea if any Ubuntu has newer meson) or ask yourself why you need 3rd party scripts using meson, ffmpeg don't need it for build and that's for sure _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
