RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Neal Gompa 2020-09-22 03:00:02 UTC
Description of problem:
Please upgrade Meson to at least 0.55.x. I am doing work with libvirt and qemu lately, and unfortunately it is not possible to build either project on RHEL 8 because Meson is too old.

Many projects using Meson aggressively upgrade their minimum version requirements because Meson adds new functionality all the time to support the needs of many projects to avoid too much custom weirdness.

I am suggesting that Meson be upgraded to at least 0.55.1 (the current latest version of the 0.55.x series is 0.55.3) because that's the version that is currently present in EPEL 7 and having a version at or higher than the one in EPEL 7 prevents friction for people upgrading from RHEL 7 to RHEL 8.
