How would this behave if you have only uuid.pc from e2fsprogs installed
but choose -Duuid=ossp? Then it would pick up uuid.pc here, but fail to
compile later?
It would still fail the meson setup step, because for e2fs we have:
uuidfunc = 'uuid_generate'
uuidheader = 'uuid/uuid.h'
while for ossp we have:
uuidfunc = 'uuid_export'
uuidheader = 'uuid.h'
and later we do:
if not cc.has_header_symbol(uuidheader, uuidfunc, args: test_c_args,
dependencies: uuid)
error('uuid library @0@ missing required function
@1@'.format(uuidopt, uuidfunc))
endif
Best,
