Most of the slackware community has pretty much given up using python on 14.2 for this exact reason. And you've been using pip so this ones on you. -Ben

First off, you don't want to use pip. it makes it very difficult to remove packages later and can result in a broken python installation. Other than that, this type of thing is not unusual on 14.2 since it doesn't include a full python3 stack. Either you are missing a dependency, or meson hasn't been properly configured for the correct python version. You can try starting the build with "meson build -Dpython=python2.7" to make sure it selects the older python. If that doesn't work you might need to seek other solutions since dealing with an incomplete python stack is a project all on it's own. -Ben

As mentioned in their instructions, you run the meson command with the build
argument.
$ meson build
That is 'meson' then a SPACE then 'build'. They didn't tell you to run
meson.build, so why are you executing the file manually? Did you just assume
that they made a mistake?

Ben,
Isn't that what I did with bash telling me the command's not found?
Now, combining the first two lines from the README's build and install
section I get this result:
$ sh meson.build
meson.build: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `'pulseaudio-equalizer-ladspa','
meson.build: line 1: `project('pulseaudio-equalizer-ladspa','

[PLUG] Building pulseaudio-equalizer
To build LAD's improved fork of pulseaudio-equalizer I built the two dependencies not present on my system: ladswa and fftw. Now I have all needed dependencies: ## Dependencies * [Meson](https://mesonbuild.com/) ≥ 0.46 & [Ninja](https://ninja-build.org/) * [GTK+](https://www.gtk.org/) 3 * [Python](https://www.python.org/) ≥ 2.7 or 3 * [PyGObject](https://pygobject.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) ≥ 3.30 * [SWH Plugins](https://github.com/swh/ladspa) * [Pulseaudio](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/) * [bash](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/) & [bc](https://www.gnu.org/software/bc/) and when I try to implement the build sequence: ## Build & Install ```sh meson build cd build ninja (sudo) ninja install I'm stuck at the first command: $ mason.build -bash: mason.build: command not found [rshepard@salmo pulseaudio-equalizer]$ ./meson.build -bash: ./meson.build: Permission denied The mason.build perms are: -rw-r--r-- 1 rshepard users 738 Apr 16 09:45 meson.build What have I done incorrectly? TIA, Rich
