The mariadb change to use CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR
instead of building mariadb-native was reverted because
qemu is not ominpotent. The same applies to meson
running executables via qemu. No custom wrapper would help.

You seem to have omitted reading a large part in the
commit message for the systemd change.

This is not relevant to libfprint itself, it's a bug in
Yocto's systemctl replacement script.

----8<--- foo.service ----8<---
...
[Install]
WantedBy=bar.service
RequiredBy=baz.service
...
----8<--- foo.service ----8<---

The symlinks in /etc/systemd/system/bar.service.wants
and /etc/systemd/system/baz.service.requires are not
created for foo.service.

This command is also not supported by the Yocto replacement:

systemctl set-default custom.target

I have been bitten by both issues.
