I updated PKGBUILD style while searching for the correct flags I had to use to build it on arm, I have pushed a licensed update at this url.

@mydongistiny: done! :-D --> https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/meld/-/issues/645

@silvio Please submit the patch upstream to the meld team. It's a problem on their end. They are refactoring/refactored a lot of their build system. I've already submitted one to fix another error. This problem is actually because of the latest version of meson and the deprecation of some options they used to support, but meld needs to fix it. All Gnome maintainers are working right now(and have been for a little while) to remove these errors.

I have following error at build-time:

meld/data/meson.build:34:0: ERROR: Function does not take positional arguments.

After removing of 'appdata' it works again.

Here the patch for this:

@Jeffrey4l Ahh okay cool. Glad it's working now. I use a lot of git PKGBUILD's too heh.

hey, i found I am using a old xorgproto-git which cause the issue. After xorgproto from extra, meld-git is built successfully.

thanks @mydongistiny

I already have glib2 and gtk3 as depends, but still have the same error.

@Jeffrey4l I updated the PKGBUILD and pushed to aur. Looks like they added new deps so I added them. Let me know after makepkg -s if that solved it for you.
