Hello, meson 0.47.0 has new option type - feature <https://mesonbuild.com/Release-notes-for-0-47-0.html#new-type-of-build-option-for-features> (tri-state option - enabled/disabled/auto). It is quite common that in autofoo and less in cmake worlds people rely on auto-detection of dependencies and enabling features based on those.
I believe that for distribution we should make sure that all default features are enabled and if not, packager should explicitly disable feature. For instance when I was testing some RPM patches for new compression types, it was disabling some default feature because the configure script was written in a wrong way. It would be nice if we could have some standardized way of specifying options for buildsystems which would convert into autofoo/cmake/meson way of specifying parameters but this is topic for another discussion. Thoughts? Objections? Unless there is strong opposition, I'm going to switch this parameter in %meson macro and you would be able to change its value by redefining %__meson_auto_features. -- -Igor Gnatenko
