Hi Jon,
the current Meson is only for python3.9,
can you extend to cover also 3.12 ?
Yeah, I'm afraid I'm rather behind in updating meson.
I'll try to look into it.
python-cairo is expecting "mesonpy" as available module.
pip._vendor.pyproject_hooks._impl.BackendUnavailable: Cannot import
'mesonpy'
pip3.12 wheel failed
But meson itself is strictly a command line tool. I don't think it
provides an importable python module.
'mesonpy' is provided by the 'meson-python' python package [1].
(I think this internally runs 'meson' to do the actual builds.)
