Hi,
having installed meson-0.48.1-1.fc29.noarch and trying to build
geocode-glib 3.26.0 (the latest upstream release
https://download.gnome.org/sources/geocode-glib/ as of now), it fails
to build due to missing mesontest:
=====================================================================
Building module geocode-glib in /home/user/fp/.flatpak-
builder/build/geocode-glib-2
=====================================================================
ERROR: Command 'mesontest' not found

From the above I believe you should not add this to the stable releases
"if anyone needs it", unless you do some proof that it won't break more
than the geocode-glib (and/or fix the breakage at the same time).
I mean this just as a notice/confirmation that there are packages which
can be broken with this change, as you pointed out.
Bye,
Milan
