Create the PKGBUILD for the Meson package with the following commands:

mkdir /sources/meson
cd /sources/meson
cat > PKGBUILD << "REALEOF"
# Maintainer: Linux From Scratch <lfs-dev@lists.linuxfromscratch.org>

pkgname="meson"

build(){
  cd ${pkgname}-${pkgver}
  pip3 wheel -w dist --no-cache-dir --no-build-isolation --no-deps $PWD
}

package(){
  cd ${pkgname}-${pkgver}
  pip3 install --root "${pkgdir}" --no-index --find-links dist meson
  install -vDm644 data/shell-completions/bash/meson ${pkgdir}/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/meson
  install -vDm644 data/shell-completions/zsh/_meson ${pkgdir}/usr/share/zsh/site-functions/_meson
}
REALEOF

Prepare the build directory for the pacman user and build the package:

chown -R root:pacman .
chmod 2775 .
chmod 664 PKGBUILD
su pacman -c 'makepkg -L --nodeps'

Add the newly created package to the central package repository:

cp meson-1.7.0-1-any.pkg.tar.xz \
   /srv/pacman/repos/LFS/
repo-add /srv/pacman/repos/LFS/LFS.db.tar.xz \
         /srv/pacman/repos/LFS/meson-1.7.0-1-any.pkg.tar.xz

Update the local cache and install the Meson package:

pacman -Syu
pacman -S meson --overwrite \* -dd --noconfirm

Finally, copy the source files into the source repository and clean up the build directory:

mkdir /srv/pacman/source/LFS/meson
cp PKGBUILD /srv/pacman/source/LFS/meson
cd /sources
rm -rf meson
