#72364: meson does not respect MacPorts build_arch
--------------------------+--------------------
 Reporter:  barracuda156  |      Owner:  (none)

 Priority:  Normal        |  Milestone:
Component:  ports         |    Version:  2.10.5
 Keywords:  ppc64         |       Port:  meson
--------------------------+--------------------
 Arch value is not passed to `meson`. Instead, it makes some guesswork, and
 fails, when the build is for ppc64:

 This is just an example. With `glib2` I also got errors.

 A hack around would be to use a cross file.

 The bug should be fixed in PG (if not in `meson` itself), not per-port, of
 course.
