Repeating here the comment I had on earlier thread - I'd drop the ".2" when
not necessary, i.e. unless we find there are bugs that cause us issues with
0.49 or 0.49.1. In general I think it's better to keep the required meson
version only at the major release level. The reason it's currently at
0.47.1 rather than 0.47, was that 0.47 had a bug that prevented DPDK builds
from working correctly.
