How does meson handle python 2 vs. 3? How do you avoid issues in the
build files wrt this? On Debian meson seems to depend on python 3, so
are they fully python 3?

How does meson handle build file backwards compatibility between meson
versions? I don't intend to flame, but I've found for some reason many
python projects don't seem to take this very seriously. Either having
conditionals in build files to support building with several meson
versions or always requiring the latest and greatest version would be
rather annoying.


BR,
