I'm subscribed already and getting emails from the mailing list. https://hastebin.com/share/gejakiluli.yaml Here's the output of meson setup. I did not set --prefix
I ran ldconfig with no arguments and it gave no output. I also confirmed that `usr/local/lib/` is mentioned in `/etc/ld.so.conf`. After doing that, recloning the project, and recompiling, I got this shorter list of linker errors: https://hastebin.com/share/venelugome.bash The first log had multiple sets of errors, but the second one has only one set: the one under the heading "Linking target ftdiff" What should I do next?
