So if I merge my patch with Eliot’s it should be fine. I can send complete patch after it’s done.

Did you see that Tristan also just patched his own version which seems
like it could potentially be even more complete?

> About meson wrap subproject. In my projects I really like to have fallback if there is no system lib available or system lib have not compatible version. Basically I use it as package manager for my C/C++ projects, I just put the link to git into wrap file, provide dependency and that’s it, meson does all the work. Ideally everything in my project should be build from scratch without any prebuilt binaries, so I can cross-compile to any platform that I want and build/packaging of project becomes much easier.

Thanks!
