@leo @puppygirlhornypost2 @wyatt
meson: uses pkg-config to attempt to locate a dependency (optionally can attempt that weird cmake format)
if that fails, attempt to download and build the dependency from a wrap file, if such file is available
if that fails, then it tells the user "can't find dependency"
that's, how you do it. integration with native first, download+build as a last resort- Haelwenn /элвэн/ :triskell: likes this.

@puppygirlhornypost2 @wyatt imo a build system needs some form of dependency management to be good, and generalizing over most usecases the more tightly integrated the nicer it is to work with
