Hello Frans,
I think this means that Meson will be looking for ../meson.build while
running in the build/ directory.
Correct,
$ meson --help
usage: meson [-h] [--prefix PREFIX] [--libdir LIBDIR]
[directories [directories ...]]
How else would you point to the parent directory? It's just like cmake in
this regard.
