in repository guix.
commit eb03767cf3653e3db2911562813f2dc987692f7e
Author: Nicolas Graves <[email protected]>
AuthorDate: Thu Oct 30 23:45:22 2025 +0100
gnu: meson: Use a custom build-system.
This allows us to decouple meson and all its dependents from the
pyproject-build-system, and avoid a lot of rebuilds (rusts, llvm...).
* gnu/packages/build-tools.scm (meson)
[build-system]: Replace pyproject-build-system with a patched
gnu-build-system.
[arguments]<#:phases>: Adapt accordindly.
[native-inputs]: Replace python-setuptools by python-setuptools-bootstrap.
