Hi, I'm trying to build with meson.
-------------------------------
rm -rf builddir
meson setup \
--prefix=/usr/local/pg_master \
-Ddebug=true \
--bindir=/usr/local/pg_master \
--datadir=/usr/local/pg_master \
-Dpgport=1600 \
builddir
cd builddir
ninja
ninja install
-----------------------------------------------
------error part-------------------------
builddir$ninja install

Attempting to use polkit to gain elevated privileges...

Quote from meson.build:
# We want < 0.56 for python 3.5 compatibility on old platforms. EPEL for
# RHEL 7 has 0.55. < 0.54 would require replacing some uses of the fs
# module, < 0.53 all uses of fs. So far there's no need to go to >=0.56.
meson_version: '>=0.54',
Well the error is quite intuitive. Then I tried to install meson 0.61.2. Then all things work as intended.
