If installing from repository, do not install the master branch!
Checkout the tag "v1.3.0" instead, or simply install from a tarball
or from your favorite package manager.
You may also checkout the "libmypaint-v1" branch, which is the
development branch for libmypaint v1.x and has some more recent
fixes.
Checkout the last tag "v1.y.z" from `libmypaint-v1` branch instead

In particular, do NOT install tags or release tarballs versionned
"v2.y.z". GIMP depends on the version 1 of libmypaint and is
incompatible with the version 2 (which is still experimental anyway
and has no stable release at time of writing).

Note: if building from repository (not tarballs), you may notice a meson
build system is also available in the repository. It is not the main
build system and is not recommended for stable packages as it still has
several known issues, including build flag errors leading to crashes and
missing features.
We only invite contributors to use the meson build if they wish to help
with debugging.
