Yes, Meson support was added in PostgreSQL 16 and it will eventually
replace Autotools [1]. Meson is more convenient and works faster so I
encourage you to give it a try.
Here is a quick start:
```
sudo apt install ninja-build
pip3 install meson
# or: sudo apt install meson
meson setup --buildtype debug -Dcassert=true -Dtap_tests=enabled
-Dlz4=enabled -Dldap=disabled -Dprefix=/Users/eax/pginstall build
ninja -C build
meson test -C build
```
