Here are corresponding patches. > Also I don't see any mention of the minimum required version of Ninja. > I think we should add it too, or maybe reference the corresponding > section I couldn't find in "17.1 Requirements" > > [1]: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/install-meson.html > [2]: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/installation-platform-notes.html By a quick look on the buildfarm we seem to use Ninja >= 1.11.1. However since Meson can use both Ninja and VS as a backend I'm not certain which section would be most appropriate for naming the minimal required version of Ninja. -- Best regards, Aleksander Alekseev
