           Summary: meson build weirdness
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other

Hi,

I've been trying to use the meson build system with not much success so far.

First of all, when running meson for the first time, i.e. initializing the
build directory, meson tries to resolve all compulsory dependencies. This is
weird, because the options in the meson_options.txt can only be changed in a
second run, which makes the options almost useless.

And that's the second point. If I saw this correctly, the build did not pick up
the fact that I ran mesonconf with -Dtests=false and -Ddocumentation=false
respectively; despite these settings the respective targets are getting built.

I hope I was able to explain the problem properly

bye Michi
