   qemu/meson.build:1352:4: ERROR: Running configure command failed.
   The following clauses were found for PSERIES

     config PSERIES depends on FDT

This is triggered with:

                fdt support: NO

having:

default-configs/targets/ppc64-softmmu.mak:6:TARGET_NEED_FDT=y

So this code doesn't seem to work:

if not fdt.found() and fdt_required.length() > 0
   error('fdt not available but required by targets ' + ',
'.join(fdt_required))
endif

BTW I disagree FDT is target-dependent, it is machine-dependent IMO.


I agree.  It is much better to depend on FDT consistently for machines 
that require it.
