We pinned the python version to 3.9 because we had issues building older meson 0.47.1 with python 3.10. Since then meson was updated to 0.53.2 in our CI, but we didn't reconsider the python version. Newer versions of python uncover more issues with our python files. And newer major distributions are using newer versions of python. But we do not really want to use bleeding edge of python releases either to avoid unexpected CI failures that need immediate fixes. Pin python version to 3.12 as it is the latest released version and we should not have any issues with this version. While at it, updating meson to a newer version that plays nicely with python 3.12. We do not really care much about the version we use here as long as it is able to build the version of DPDK we're using. Meson has no LTS releases, as far as I can tell, so just choosing the latest stable 1.4.x series. It should be fine to use for a next few years. Major distributions are using 1.0+ versions. Upcoming F40 and Ubuntu 24.03 have meson 1.3. It would also be nice to test the minimal supported version of python, but 3.6 is not available in setup-python for 22.04. The oldest is 3.7. And 3.7 is EoL, so pip fails to install some of our dependencies. The oldest version we can use today is 3.8. But, in the end, this becomes a race against older python versions reaching end of their life and packages dropping support of these versions. This may cause unexpected CI failures. So, not doing that for now. Acked-by: Simon Horman <horms@ovn.org> Signed-off-by: Ilya Maximets <i.maximets@ovn.org>
