I think it may be this:

Both meld's web site and meld's gitlab page says it only requires Python
3.4.7 or later, but that "type | None" syntax is apparently a Python 3.10+
thing.
The first answer on the stackoverflow site has a couple of workarounds
involving other modules. You might try hack your copy to use one of them,
to see if that fixes it.
I don't know for certain if this will work, assuming you have other python
runtimes installed, you could instead try something like
/usr/bin/python3.14 /usr/bin/meld file1.xml file2.xml
to see if the problem goes away.

IMHO, meld needs rebuild with python 3.14...
a) There is obviously no meld module present for python 3.14:
:; /usr/bin/python3.14 /usr/bin/meld file1.xml file2.xml
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/meld", line 98, in <module>
import meld.conf # noqa: E402
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'meld'
b) Python 3.9 is still default one:
:; pkg mediator python
MEDIATOR VER. SRC. VERSION IMPL. SRC. IMPLEMENTATION
python local 3.9 vendor
Thanks anyway
