[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v7 01/13] meson: require meson 0.56+

[Kieran Bingham]

Quoting Tomi Valkeinen (2022-05-05 11:40:52)
> Ubuntu 22.04 LTS has been released with meson 0.61.2, and it is easy to
> install a recent version of meson with python-pip, so let's update the
> required meson version to get rid of the Android compilation
> limitation.
> 
> Additionally, going to meson 0.55 gives the ability to have patch files
> for git-wraps which is useful for Python bindings.
> 
> 0.56 brings meson.project_source_root() and meson.project_build_root(),
> allowing us to get rid of the deprecated meson.source_root() and
> meson.build_root().
> 
> So, let's update the required meson version to 0.56.

Sounds good to me!
