For packagers: Note that mpv's build system is only supported on Python 3. If you use the `bootstrap.py` script it will take care of this, otherwise you need to explicitly invoke the build system using `python3 waf`.

This release adds the Meson build system as an alternative to waf. It is supposed to be feature-complete but please report any issues you encounter.
