Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm trying to add ninja and meson to packages feed. The reason for
that is described here <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1871">https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1871</a>
and <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/openwrt/packages/issues/8315">https://github.com/openwrt/packages/issues/8315</a> .<br>
If you want to look at that, my test repo is here
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/ja-pa/meson-turris">https://github.com/ja-pa/meson-turris</a> but it's not ready for
primetime yet...<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
J.P.

just what the world needed, yet another build system :)

I took a quick look at "meson" but got confused after it referred to
something else called "ninja". So it appears to be some high level thing
producing other lowlevel things which then do stuff.
I am not aware of any developer actively working on support for this, so
a patch would be greatly appreciated. At least there are no plans to
*not* support it.
One nuisance is that it appears to mandate Python 3 while OpenWrt
buildroot currently requires Python 2.7 - so in order to avoid depending
on both versions, all the existing buildroot python users probably need
to be ported to Python 3 first.
Regards,
Jo
