~lattis/muon#108: 
basu fails to build with muon

Hey there, I am trying to build basu using muon on a custom Linux distribution that uses musl libc. I am receiving the following error:

basu-v0.2.1/meson.build:208:47: error unable to parse '65534\10'
208 |                 id = id_result.stdout().to_int()
                                                    ^
basu-v0.2.1/meson.build:208:41: error in method str.to_int()
208 |                 id = id_result.stdout().to_int()

I tried it with meson and it builds just fine, which lead me to believe it's a muon bug.

Any ideas?

Just faced the exact same issue with glib. This appears to be a problem with the to_int() method with null terminated strings.

The string is newline terminated, not null terminated.

Meson's implementation language happens to ignore the trailing junk, here.

I have made muon's to_int implementation ignore leading/trailing whitespace so this issue should be fixed.

Thanks for the fix. Mind bumping the release number as it has been some time :)
