+Subject: [PATCH] meson.build: do not ask for python installation / version
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Even by adding python3-setuptools-native the following error is not fixed so
+just ask for python3 executable.
+
+| meson.build:9:0: ERROR: <ExternalProgram 'python3' -> ['<...>/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin/python3-native/python3']> is not a valid python or it is missing setuptools
+
+Upstream-Status:  Inappropriate [OE specific]
