Subject: bug#29824: Meson 0.44.0 is broken with guix.
Date: Sat, 23 Dec 2017 19:18:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <MWHPR16MB00636D599AA2B8CDFD06770092030@MWHPR16MB0063.namprd16.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

I installed meson with command `guix package -i meson`

* Error:
$ meson --version

Traceback (most recent call last):

     raise RuntimeError('Could not determine how to run Meson. Please

RuntimeError: Could not determine how to run Meson. Please file a bug 
with details.


I'm currently using Guix on top of Fedora 26. The installed version of 
meson is 0.44.0.


* Possible cause:
 From /mesonlib.py/: line 47~51, we have:
#+BEGIN_BLOCK python
     # The only thing remaining is to try to find the bundled executable and
     # pray distro packagers have not moved it.
     fname = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '..', 'meson.py')
     if not os.path.exists(fname):
         raise RuntimeError('Could not determine how to run Meson. 
Please file a bug with details.')
#+END_BLOCK
which means meson will try to find the meson.py script at startup, but 
it seems Guix has renamed the this file with the new file name 
*.meson-real* and warp it with a shell script /meson/ in bin.
