Is there any particular reason why the meson build files are missing in the relase archive?

Answer 1 · 2024-07-02T08:14:53.000Z

yes, because the meson build file was moved to the root directory after the most recent release was published.

In that release, you'll find the meson build files in the contrib directory

Ack. are these files in the root directory for upcoming releases or do they stay in the contrib directory?

They were moved in commit 922ee47 , and will be available in the root directory in the next release. Though theres no reason you can't use them from the contrib directory in the current release:

cd meson
meson setup <builddir> .
