Package: meson Version: 0.56.0-1.1 Severity: normal Meson's debian package currently does not depend on dpkg-dev.
However, default_libdir() tries to run dpkg-architecture: https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/blob/0.56.0/mesonbuild/mesonlib.py#L743 Consequence: meson will install libraries to $PREFIX/lib64 instead of expected path $PREFIX/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu Reproduce: $ docker run --rm -it debian:sid-slim $ apt-get update && apt-get install meson $ dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH prints bash: dpkg-architecture: command not found Expected: $ apt-get update && apt-get install meson $ dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH x86_64-linux-gnu Suggested fix: Add dpkg-dev to "Recommends:" header of meson's debian packge.
