-Subject: [PATCH] Revert "build: disable gir install via list to pacify meson
- >= 0.60.2 (#10489)"
-
-This reverts commit 8fc2df08b40aa3e1958ed2fde853c50676d8cf48.
-
-This commit was wrong, because it tried to work around a bug in a single
-version of meson by using something that isn't, wasn't, and won't be a
-valid value.
-
-The fixed version of meson 0.60.x has been out for a while now, which
-once again accepts `false`, and 0.61.0 also accepts `false` but was
-known at the time of this workaround to not work in meson-git master
-(now meson 0.61.0).
-
-Using `false` is acceptable and the failure to accept it has been
-qualified as a meson regression. Using `[false]` is just... trying to
-fuzz meson with random objects until you get something that slips its
-way through the argument checker and produces desired effects on the
-python implementation level.
