While trying to raise an exception on failures, it instead raised an
exception for misusing the exception. CalledProcessError is only
supposed to be used when given a return code and a command, and it
prints:
Command '{cmd}' returned non-zero exit status {ret}
Passing an error message string instead, just errored out with:
TypeError: __init__() missing 1 required positional argument
Instead use the subprocess module's base error which does accept string
messages. Everything that used to error out, still errors out, but now
they do so with a slightly prettier console message.
Meson build system for zstandard
Meson is a build system designed to optimize programmer productivity. It aims to do this by providing simple, out-of-the-box support for modern software development tools and practices, such as unit tests, coverage reports, Valgrind, CCache and the like.
This Meson build system is provided with no guarantee and maintained by Dima Krasner <dima@dimakrasner.com>.
It outputs one libzstd, either shared or static, depending on
default_library option.
