Subject: CI: Verify that Autotools `make dist` includes everything needed for Meson
X-Git-Tag: dbus-1.15.0~32^2~21
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5eee2d552a27688a1ff33e3a587f45e6406c85cf;p=thirdparty%2Fdbus.git

CI: Verify that Autotools `make dist` includes everything needed for Meson

This is similar to what we have done for CMake since dbus/dbus!87
(commit 1063bba "CI: Do the CMake native debug build from an Autotools
`make dist`"). Our official source releases are Autotools `make dist`
tarballs, so our CI should assert that such tarballs contain everything
necessary to do a CMake or Meson build, so that downstream distributions
using our tarballs as source can choose their preferred build system.

When the Meson build system is ready to be recommended as more preferred
than Autotools, we can do as GLib did: stop releasing `make dist`
tarballs, and start releasing `meson dist` tarballs instead (which will
change nothing for Meson or CMake users, but Autotools users will have
to run autoreconf or autogen.sh before building).
