With the exception of things like sysconfdir (/etc), every other
installation directory option must be inside the prefix.
Also move the prefix checks to coredata.py since prefix can also be set
from inside project() with default_options and via mesonconf. Earlier
you could set prefix to a relative path that way.
This also allows us to return consistent values for get_option('xxxdir')
regardless of whether relative paths are passed or absolute paths are
passed while setting options on the command-line, via mesonconf, or via
default_options in project(). Now the returned path will *always* be
relative to the prefix.
Includes a unit test for this, and a failing test.
Closes#1299
These two are also C-like sources, so don't ignore them in
backends/ninjabackend.py:generate_target() when we call
is_source() on the list of generated sources for that target.
Closes#1318
Fetching cflags and libs can also fail if, for instance, the pkg-config
file for a dependency needed by this package isn't found. Without this,
we will print "Found: YES" and then "Found: NO".
Without this, macOS users can't figure out why a particular dependency
wasn't found because the pkg-config error message gets masked by the
fresh and useless DependencyException.
Don't need to define __init__ and manually call the parent init. Doing
so messes up the error message you get by doing str(exception) because
it includes the current class name in it repeatedly.
This change helps us run on older distros such as Ubuntu LTS which is
very lazy in updating even non-core and stable packages such as Ninja.
Ninja 1.6.x is only needed for running the tests.
