#55994: meson: installs_libs no?
-------------------------+-------------------

Keywords: | Port: meson
-------------------------+-------------------
GPL-licensed ports that build with meson become nondistributable, because
meson uses python36, and python36 uses openssl, and the GPL conflicts with
the openssl license.
{{{
"ncmpc" is not distributable because its license "gpl" conflicts with
license "OpenSSL" of dependency "openssl"
}}}
Does meson install any libraries that get embedded into software built
using meson, such that they would affect that software's license? I am
assuming that it does not, and that it should therefore use `installs_libs
no` to indicate that.
