Comment 7 Reynaldo H. Verdejo Pinochet 2017-09-06 18:57:45 UTC 
After these changes, the default build includes gstreamer; the base, good, bad, ugly and libav plugin modules and devtools/validate.
Comment 8 Thibault Saunier 2017-09-06 19:14:32 UTC 
tbh I would rather keep it the way it is until we have components in meson and can do it properly easily :-)
Comment 9 Reynaldo H. Verdejo Pinochet 2017-09-06 21:47:17 UTC 
We can improve the situation once (and if) that moves forward. In the mean time, a simple default that makes sense is in order.
Comment 10 Thibault Saunier 2017-09-06 23:22:35 UTC 
Well, "build what you can" makes sense fmpov ;)
Comment 11 Reynaldo H. Verdejo Pinochet 2017-09-06 23:57:21 UTC 
Maybe, with enough resources, far more testers and better dependency checks. The minimum gets things going quicker and safer, without new requirements.

I see how the Meson components would be useful but I don't see a reason to hedge this on that being merged.
