[libcamera-devel] [PATCH] Added alternative to meson install command, if it fails with --user argument

[Sebastian Fricke]

Hey Vedant,

Thank you for the patch.

I believe this patch would benefit from a description, that makes clear
why this change is needed. The current version feels like you've hit a
quite specific problem and you provide a quite generic solution to it.

This feels a little too broad as there are multiple reasons for this
command to fail. Can you show the error message that you encountered?
