Hi Noah, In the mean time, debhelper has gain native support for the meson build system (including support for cross building with meson). Most likely, what you will need is: # instead of ./configure [--with-foo] dh_auto_configure --buildsystem=meson [-- --with-foo] # instead of $(MAKE) dh_auto_build --buildsystem=meson # instead of $(MAKE) test/check dh_auto_test --buildsystem=meson # instead of $(MAKE) install dh_auto_install --buildsystem=meson Plus a Build-Depends: meson, ninja, debhelper (>= 10.3~) Thanks, ~Niels
