Meson files missing breaking build

[Philip Prindeville]

Hi.

I’m having issues building a lot of packages lately, going back to June or July.  Not sure what changed then.  Maybe the 0.54.3 update to Meson?

Various things like lighttpd and glib2 don’t want to build because of Meson.

I get errors like this:

That seems to be an invocation of Meson/CreateNativeFile, defined in feeds/packages/devel/meson/meson.mk, where $(MESON_DIR)/openwrt-cross.txt.in has never been installed.

MESON_DIR is $(STAGING_DIR_HOSTPKG)/lib/meson, but staging_dir/hostpkg/lib/meson doesn’t exist.

Where is this supposed to be created?

I need to be able to get back to building packages, but I’m dead in my tracks.

Any guidance appreciated.

Thanks,
