+Subject: [PATCH] meson: Do not check for iso xml files during build
+
+These files are needed during runtime and may exist in a different
+path ( staging area ) when cross-compiled, therefore its not completely
+valid to check for these files to exist during build-time

In case the iso_639_xml and iso_3166_xml files are not present on the build machine, then meson fails the compilation - however these files are used only during runtime. To avoid this, add a patch not to check the existence of these files during building, but also specify where these files will be located using build arguments. This patch is a backport from master branch 73c46b265d1cb35c43956d1723c338a137f6ef56 Signed-off-by: Gyorgy Sarvari <skandigraun@gmail.com> --- ...check-for-iso-xml-files-during-build.patch | 31 +++++++++++++++++++ .../recipes-connectivity/geary/geary_40.0.bb | 5 ++- 2 files changed, 35 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 meta-gnome/recipes-connectivity/geary/geary/0001-meson-Do-not-check-for-iso-xml-files-during-build.patch
