Description stsp 2023-12-11 08:57:35 UTC
Current buildroot git has meson-1.1.1.
But the latest release is 1.3.0.
Meson is a young and rapidly evolving
system. This unfortunately means that
you can't get the good use of any older
version than that you've started with.
I can't build my project with 1.1.1
(or even 1.2).

stsp, All,

We had to revert the bump to version 1.2.0, see:
    https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/commit/acfdf21f0b752e844a33c70a0fd2f82f4534a5a0

> I can't build my project with 1.1.1

Please help us by doing the version bump localy and test it,
and then contribute the patch with appropriate explanations
on why it is now safe to bump to 1.3.0 and how the breakage
with 1.2.0 was fixed upstream.

See the manual for how to contribute to Buildroot:
    https://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#_contributing_to_buildroot

As this is a feature request, it is better handled on the
mailing list now; closing.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
