Patience.

It's IMO too early, we are still fixing bugs on Meson build, distros
we support still hasn't the version we need packaged and we are
already removing it?

Christophe already mentioned that we should have not bumped Meson
requirements that much.

Keep it in some branch but for the moment I would say no.
