If we don't do that, the traversal of the sources list to generate the
sources file for g-ir-scanner is going to explode with a Python
backtrace like this one:
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/mesonbuild/modules/gnome.py", line 463, in generate_gir
gir_filelist.write(os.path.join(srcdir, s) + '\n')
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/posixpath.py", line 89, in join
genericpath._check_arg_types('join', a, *p)
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/genericpath.py", line 143, in _check_arg_types
(funcname, s.__class__.__name__)) from None
if the sources list contains a list.
An example trace:
[snip]
> File "/usr/lib/python3.6/concurrent/futures/thread.py", line 55, in run
> result = self.fn(*self.args, **self.kwargs)
> File "/home/trhd/Projects/meson/mesonbuild/mtest.py", line 221, in run_single_test
> child_env.update(self.options.global_env.get_env(child_env))
> AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'get_env'
On Windows, one will face the issue of the 8192-character limit for each
command line, so this will cause an issue when one is building items
like GTK+ with introspection, because the g-ir-scanner command line will
likely get too long, which will clearly break the build. This will
affect all Windows builds.
Make use of the --filelist option that is already in g-ir-scanner, and
generate such a file list from the sources that are fed to
generate_gir(), named as
$(builddir)/$(target_id)/<NameSpace>_<NameSpaceVersion>_gir_filelist
and using it during the build.
* add support for cups dependencies
libcups has its own cups-config tool rather than using pkg-config.
This adds support for cups-config, based on pcap-config and
sdl2-config implementations.
This change also includes the unit test case and documentation for
cups dependency object implementation, and libcups2 dep to CI image.
Listing all languages inside meson.build for the Yelp-based manual
localisation is error-prone, and it also requires parsing and modifying
Meson files from external tools.
Just like we do for i18n, we can use an ancillary `LINGUAS` file in the
help source sub-directory to list all the help languages.
In version 3.6.0, clang added -Wignored-optimization-argument. Without
setting this flag to -Werror, "ignored optimization arguments" such as
(for example) -fpeel-loops, are accepted but warned about, leading to
noisy builds if meson thinks the flag is supported.

PR #1955 added implib to known_exe_kwargs, but since PR #2001 it needs to be
in exe_kwargs as well, to avoid 'WARNING: Passed invalid keyword argument
"implib"' when it is used.
Include 'platbase' for stripping the prefix for 'platlib' and 'platinclude'.
This is necessary for installing platform-dependant Python modules such as GI overrides.
99% of all mkenums uses in C libraries use the same basic template,
so add a mkenums_simple() function that takes care of everything for
us based on that template.
Features:
- optional function declaration decorator such as GLIB_AVAILABLE
- optional extra header prefix (e.g. for include needed for decorator)
- optional extra body prefix (e.g. for additional includes)
- optional function name prefix (e.g. to add leading underscores)
