meson: update to 1.9.1

[zlice]

Testing the changes

• I tested the changes in this PR: briefly

mesa and wlroots worked

Local build testing

• I built this PR locally for my native architecture, x86_64, cross i686 (mesa)
• I built this PR locally for these architectures (if supported. mark crossbuilds):
• x86_64-musl

Comments

didn't do the same as meson 1.8.2 #56014 with cflags/sanitizer in post-patch. obviously replaces that PR

budgie-desktop: updated to 10.9.3 and added some dev deps, wasn't building in 1.8.2 previously removed changes, but for reference budgie-desktop-template.txt

[zlice]

well idk musl well enough, does it even support asan? sure somebody here knows

[zlice]

budgie-desktop fails on cross. tried gettext-0.26 and installing appstream for the cross builds but no dice. will probably remove the budgie bit.

[zlice]

for musl asan just patched the unittests/linuxliketests.py file directly, and added a is_musl() to mesonbuild/utils/universal.py.

i think last time i did a post_patch() a real patch was recommended anyway.

see https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/blob/master/main/meson/skip-broken-tests.patch

more specifically mesonbuild/meson#8283

left out the bungie-desktop stuff

[dogknowsnx]

Built w/o issues:

• dav1d
• gtk-layer-shell
• labwc
• mangowc
• zathura

(Will test building more packages later - x86_64-glibc)

libdrm compiled successfully.
By the way, the libdrm checksum doesn't match.
This needs to be fixed, or better yet, updated.
Create PR #57692

[onlylunix]

mesa-25.2.5 compiled successfully.
To build libdrm and mesa, I needed to add python3-packaging to the hostmakedepends variable.
python3-packaging probably needs to be added to the meson package depends variable.

Sorry for the translator, my native language is Russian.

[ahesford]

@zlice your patch breaks meson because it adds a dependency on python3-packaging that is not reflected in the package metadata. In general, patches that do not reflect upstream fixes should never add functions to the public interface of a package. The right thing to do is replicate the actual Alpine patch and selectively apply it only for musl.

[eli-schwartz]

If you want this upstream it needs to do something like check for __MUSL__.

Don't use third-party libraries (meson has none by design and this adds a runtime dep solely to get a testsuite hack to work) which depend on import sys; analyze_elffile(sys.executable) to check if DT_INTERP contains the word "musl" and fails when python is statically linked or CC=musl-gcc + a glibc system.
