            Bug ID: 794350
           Summary: meson: fix ladspa dependencies
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git master
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-bad
          Assignee: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

     GNOME version: ---

I want to use meson, since it enables me to build and install only the few
plugins I need.

However, in reality to build the libgstladspa.so target I must first build
libxml2, raptor2 and lrdf. This is not consistent with the autotools
implementation which treats lrdf as an optional dependency.

The bottom line is, requiring lrdf defeats the purpose of saving time if you
really don't need lrdf.

There is also an issue with not checking for ladspa.h which could cause an
unexpected build failure if the ladspa sdk is not installed.
