I'm just saying ./configure

I made a new subdirectory and did ../configure -- no difference.

I don't know anything about "meson" but I installed it, and in that  
same subdirectory I just typed: meson
It still complained about "enchant" not being found. But maybe meson  
needs some parameters or something.

I've got a /usr/bin/enchant, /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/enchant, and  
/usr/share/enchant -- if that helps.
