[Buildroot] [PATCH v14 0/5] gobject-introspection: New package

[aduskett at gmail.com <aduskett@gmail.com>]

From: Adam Duskett <Aduskett@gmail.com>

Included in version 14 of the gobject-introspection patch series.
The patch series is almost identical with V13 except for one 
significant change:

With permission from Arnout I have included the patch:
package/pkg-meson.mk: set Python sysconfigdata
However; the patch has one big flaw I would like to discuss:

The patch breaks libglib2 if a target-python is not selected or is not yet
built and installed before building target libglib2. Indeed, it would be
because we would pass _PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_NAME="" as an environment
variable, which leads to the following error during libglib2-configure:
meson.build:1978:0: ERROR: <ExternalProgram 'python3' -> ['output/host/bin/python3']> is not a valid python or it is missing setuptools

However, I do believe the patch is a better direction to go than the previous
patch: package/meson: prevent python include path manipulation for two
significant reasons:

1) Meson does not have to be patched.
2) It fixes the suffix of built python applications that use meson
   (such as newer versions of python-gobject.) With the old patch, the suffix
   of the python libraries is -x86-64 even though the binaries themselves would
   be the target architecture, which causes import errors on the target. With
   this patch, the suffix is correct.
   
I propose keeping the patch but modifying it to work correctly if the
target-python isn't selected or isn't yet built. I need help however with this
as I am not great with makefile syntax this complex.

Thanks!

Adam
