[…] I would like to throw a third option into the Mix: Meson. It not only supports Rust[1], but also has a wrapper for the cargo build system[2], which while experimental should help us translating all the cargo bits to Meson ones. At least the former is actively being used in Mesa[3], so it works as a proof of concept – for the latter, it appears that Mesa uses hand-written meson build files.
