 Hi, I've been using and building macports hexchat for months. I had to
 uninstall it in summer, and the other day I had to reinstall it again.
 What happened? It just doesn't build, it complains with a strange error.
 (output of the suggested error log file):



 {{{
 WARNING: Project specifies a minimum meson_version '>= 0.38.0' but uses
 features which were added in newer versions:
  * 0.50.0: {'install arg in configure_file'}
 }}}

 My meson version is 0.52.0

 I've tried to clean, uninstall, purge, etc... to no avail.

 Any hint?

 Version list: Macports 2.6.2, Xcode 11.0, OSX: Mojave 10.14.6 (was failing
 with 10.14.5 also)
