Description Elias Probst 2017-09-13 10:24:30 UTC

Building dev-libs/appstream-9999 fails:

The Meson build system
Version: 0.41.2
Source dir: /var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/appstream-9999/work/appstream-9999
Build dir: /var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/appstream-9999/work/appstream-9999-build
Build type: native build

Meson encountered an error in file meson.build, line 1, column 0:
Meson version is 0.41.2 but project requires >=0.42.


I was hesitant to simply add a build-time dependency as this should be probably handled in a more generic way in "meson.eclass", which doesn't support any version handling so far and only pulls in >=dev-util/meson-0.40.0 so far.
