After a bunch of weeping and gnashing of teeth, I bumped Wayland's
dependency to meson >= 0.52.1, which is what is available in buster
backports.

I don't see a reason to pick anything older than that.


Not that it matters for Wayland, but for X11 packages - I'm currently
shipping Meson 0.51.2 in Solaris, but working now to upgrade to 0.54.0.

I won't object to requiring anything up to 0.54.0 since any new X11
package release with such a requirement should come in after the meson
upgrade.

Yup, and Ubuntu 20.04 will ship with (at least) 0.53.2 so as long as
that's fresh enough for backports in the next two years, I'm happy.

Even stock Debian stable has 0.49.2 (backports has 0.52.1), so 0.49
seems fair game.
