Ouch... Yeah, that shouldn't happen.

To be fair, that's not a lot of time when we're talking about flashrom...

Patrick already chimed in, w.r.t. Jenkins. Automating some QA has been
on my todo list for a while, and I'm in between jobs at the moment so
I'll finally have a bit of time to work on it :-)

Overall I'd like to keep meson support working for fwupd. Like
ChromeOS it's a valuable user that provides development, hardware
support, and testing on realworld hardware at the cost of a few
relatively minor bumps. It's better to work with those communities
rather than them forking or reinventing flashrom.
