Title:
Invalid, Meson-generated, valac arguments break the build
Status in simple-scan package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
I'm trying to build simple-scan according to the README file (on
Arch). With colord, packagekit, and webp installed, Meson is building
invalid args for the main build step, which prevents the project from
building.
The build declaration (meson.build) generates a Python list of
vala_args. The list of args looks OK getting passed into executable().
However, the auto-generated build.ninja is missing the required
-D(efine) flags. As a result, it treats some of defines as filenames,
and crashes.
Vala/Meson/Ninja are new to me, so I'm not sure if the problem is with
the build file, or the Meson generator, or what.
# ./src/meson.build
# If all three packages are installed, they're built into the Python list.
Somehow, the -D flags disappear during build generation
vala_args = [ '--pkg=posix', '--vapidir=' + meson.current_source_dir () ]
dependencies = [ glib_dep, gtk_dep, zlib_dep, cairo_dep, gdk_pixbuf_dep,
gusb_dep, sane_dep ]
if colord_dep.found ()
vala_args += [ '-D', 'HAVE_COLORD' ]
dependencies += colord_dep
endif
if packagekit_dep.found ()
vala_args += [ '-D', 'HAVE_PACKAGEKIT' ]
dependencies += packagekit_dep
endif
if webp_dep.found () and (not colord_dep.found () or webpmux_dep.found ()) #
Webpmux only required if colord
vala_args += [ '-D', 'HAVE_WEBP' ]
dependencies += [ webp_dep, webpmux_dep ]
endif
