The installation script (./install_release.sh) fails if certain dependencies are not pre-installed, specifically meson, cmake, and libavformat. This requires manual intervention, which interrupts the installation process.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Run ./install_release.sh without having meson, cmake, or libavformat installed.
  2. Observe that the script fails due to missing dependencies.

Expected Behavior:
The installer should check for required dependencies (meson, cmake, libavformat, etc.) and, if missing, install them automatically or prompt the user to do so. This would streamline the installation process and avoid unexpected failures.

Proposed Solution:
Modify install_release.sh to:

  • Check for the presence of meson, cmake, and libavformat.
  • If any dependencies are missing, automatically install them (or provide clear instructions to the user).
