New comment by 0x5c on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/46082#issuecomment-1722421440 Comment: > A bit tangential, this template uses the `cargo` build style instead of the `meson` one and recommends checking all `meson.build` files during each update. I think this is probably not the ideal approach so I had these changes when I updated it locally a few months ago. The meson story is a pure nuisance for downstream packagers, since all it does is a couple of template filling operations *and things that should only run on the end-user system* in xbps triggers. The reason upstream has it is so that `meson install` does the desktop db update on gnome systems for users that manually build helvum, and for flatpack dist.
