I am using OpenCV in one of my projects. Until now, I was using version 3 under Ubuntu 18.04, so in my meson.build I had:
... dependencies: [dependency('opencv')])
Now, I've compiled OpenCV 4 from source and installed to the default dir, /usr/local/, and changed my meson.build to:
... dependencies: [dependency('opencv4')])
Resulting in a not found error (despite this works with Ubuntu 20.04 and the package from the official repos, which is version 4.2). How should I specify the library's location so Meson can find it?
I've seen find_library, but that's deprecated according the docs.
