Thanks for the quick update.
I've been building my own script for building the latest gstreamer build like 1.22.1 using another script which uses wget and untaring each into folders. I use to be able to build the full list gstreamer, base, good, bad, ugly plugings however since the update to meson I continually need to change my script. I can build gstreamer 1.22.1 then we advancing through other folder to build base etc meson bombs out not finding the base build files just created. Reports something on the sorts of can't fine directory needing gstreamer 1.20.3 requires >= 1.22.1? Do you reckon I can work out what I need to do? Spent days on looking for a solution. I need to build x264enc and faac from source.
