[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/libglib2: fix build with NLS

[Fabrice Fontaine]

cc_has_function('ngettext') is broken when cross-compiling, see:
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3740

As a result, a false positive is returned and build fails because of the
missing lintl dependency

Fixes:

[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/libglib2: fix build with NLS

[Adam Duskett]

Hey Fabrice!

We are discussing this currently on IRC and I think we have two
options, perhaps you should join us?

Basically, the two options are:
1) Use your above patch (which is what I originally suggested,
although my code was a bit more hacky.)
2) What Yann is suggesting which is to expand pkg-meson.mk with
something like: http://code.bulix.org/onc7x0-767490?raw
    and then add the $(TARGET_NLS_LIBS) to the mk file.

I am liking option 2 a bit more, as it is another patch that we don't
have to maintain.

What do you think?

Adam

[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/libglib2: fix build with NLS

[Yann E. MORIN]

Fabrice, Adam, All,

On 2019-06-11 15:21 -0400, Adam Duskett spake thusly:
> We are discussing this currently on IRC and I think we have two
> options, perhaps you should join us?

I did absolutely not tell Adam to entice you to join. No I did not.

OK, I did. ;-)

So, it turned out to be the fix (last two commits):
    https://git.buildroot.org/~ymorin/git/buildroot/log/?h=yem/meson-per-pkg-flags

I'm test-building the sucker for now, I'll spew the patches in a moment.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
