Hi Nate. If you read the error message you posted, near the end it says: > This is a Meson bug and should be reported!
You might have got confused between Meson and Mesa, but those are two completely unrelated projects :) The first thing you should try is to update your system, and in particular Meson. If the problem persists, try the alternative Meson installation methods listed here, to make sure you really are using the current version: https://mesonbuild.com/Getting-meson.html If you still have this issue with the current version of Meson, you should have a look at the known Meson issues here, and report one if it's not already been reported: https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues If you're not sure, reporting an already known issue is less of a problem than no-one reporting it :) Cheers, Eric On 2023-04-23 at 01:25 UTC+01:00, Nate Hindman <thenhind...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey guys! sorry to bother you but I was building mesa on orange pi 5 and > ran into this. wasn't sure where to go from here but it seemed to be a > problem with the repo itself.
