That will help, thank you.

Totem could be an interesting challenge, being a core application.

I will take a look to see what I do.

Best regards,

How about

I've been today reading the meson documentation to try to port
libgepub[1], but I can't find any example of a lib with gir and all
this stuff, so I decided to wait until other libs are ported.

libgepub have a simple lib with gir and an executable for test. If you
want to help on this, I'll appreciate. If anyone knows about other
gnome lib with gir that now implements meson build, that would be a
good resource to copy code from.

Regards.

If you're interested, a non-trivial application would be totem. It has
optional Python and Vala deps, an external API to port to the newer
gtk-doc, etc.

Porting any libraries in its dependency chain would also be helpful.

Porting applications to meson

[Iñigo Martínez]

Hi,

I have been using meson for some months now at work, and I've taken
advantage of what I learned to port some applications' build systems
to it (gnome-todo[0], bijiben[1] and gnome-calendar[2]). While I'm
waiting for those patches to be reviewed, I could also help on porting
other applications' build systems too, although there is some work in
progress[3][4] and I would rather not start working on any random
application duplicating someone else's work.

Is there any application that no one is working on and that it would
be interesting to port it to meson?

Please, do not hesitate to contact me. I can try my best :)

I’m excited for this. I think my main concerns have already been raised
by others, but I’ll raise them as a +1:
 - Dependencies between issues (the workaround of listing them all in a
comment isn’t very satisfying, but will do in the interim if we are
sure a proper solution is coming)
 - First-class support for a fast-forward merge workflow, including not
losing comments when doing a force-push to an MR
 - Not breaking any old links when migrating cgit/Bugzilla
bugs/Bugzilla attachments

With those concerns in mind, I’m enthusiastic for gitlab.

I would also be supportive of a solution using Phabricator+cgit. Phab
for task management and patch review, since its task management is more
powerful than gitlab’s, and its patch review workflow doesn’t have the
problems of gitlab’s branch-and-merge approach (its inter-diff reviews
are great). cgit for viewing the repositories, as normal.
