meson_version is wrong #119

Closed davekeogh closed 3 years ago

davekeogh commented 3 years ago

The substring method that is being used in common/gtk-2.0/meson.build was not added until 0.56 (https://mesonbuild.com/Syntax.html#substring), but meson_version is '>= 0.50.0'.

Ubuntu 20.10, for instance, has meson 0.55.3. So the meson build is going to fail pretty much everywhere.

Thank you for pointing this out.

My intention was to support meson versions starting from 0.50.0, as it seemed to be safe for most recent distribution releases, so using the .substring() method was a mistake. Meson usually prints out a clear warning if you use methods not supported by the targeted meson_version, but for some reason it doesn't do that here, and therefore this was left unnoticed.

I'll sort this out ASAP.

This should be now fixed in master. Please let me know if you have any further issues.

Thanks again for the report.
