I tried to replicate this by running the following command: ./meson.py --cross-file cross/ubuntu-armhf.txt test\ cases/common/8\ install build --libdir=foo Running meson configure immediately after this lists its value as "foo", as it should and running install places the files in their correct locations. This happens both on trunk and 0.54.1.
