Details

Description:
The arch-meson wrapper creates debug builds, which
- is not what is expected from a distro package
- currently breaks compton.

Additional info:
* meson 0.49.2-2
* related compton bug report: https://github.com/yshui/compton/issues/143

Steps to reproduce:

- start compton with the default config
- wait 30 seconds
- compton crashes due to a failed assertion.

compton is undergoing a huge refactor, which probably explains why not all assertions work as expected.
This task depends upon
