You are hitting a bug in meson. Since you installed meson using pip, you have a very new meson, which you are using with a rather old python. It's likely that this combination is not tested very well. But it *should* work. Maybe you can get more help from Ubuntu users. > I then decided to try using mkosi to create an image, but then I get this > other error (attached on this other image).

How would I install the pip's version of > Meson instead of Ubuntu package manager's? You can run arbitrary scripts during image creation, so in principle you could do 'pip install' then. But it quickly becomes very messy and complicated. Zbyszek ___ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel

Thanks, Zbyszek. --prefix etc. I assume you mean: --prefix /etc and not prefix /etc is it so ?

No, I meant --prefix as in the command line option to ./configure, e.g. --prefix=/usr, and etc as in et cetera, not the directory. Something like ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var. Generally, it is best to use the same flags that you distribution uses. Then you'll overwrite existing files instead writing them to a different directory and potentially causing confusion.

[systemd-devel] Building systemd from git
Hello, When I build systemd from git using the usual procedure of configure, without setting special parameters, it installs folder under /usr/etc/systemd/ (like /usr/etc/systemd/system and its children, /usr/etc/systemd/network/, and more). Is there a way to run configure so that, instead of /usr/etc/systemd/, it will use /etc/systemd/ ? In Fedora, for example, the rpm uses the /etc/systemd and not /usr/etc/systemd/, which does not exist.

In Fedora, for example, the rpm uses the /etc/systemd and not /usr/etc/systemd/, which does not exist. This works like for any other autoconf/automake package. If you want to override the GNU defaults use --sysconfdir= for example. If you are a developer, and now what you do the best way to build and install systemd is via ./autogen.sh c make -j8 sudo make install. However, do understand that this voids your warranty because it will install systemd into /usr which is package manager territory.
