In theory we could have ended up linking a non-threadsafe version of GPGME, since the version without the -pthread suffix has only been thread-safe since 1.8.0. In practice we require version 0.53 of Meson (available in Ubuntu 20.04, Debian 11, etc.) so it seems reasonable to require a contemporary version of GPGME (1.8.0 is available in Ubuntu 18.04, Debian 10, etc.) and drop the complexity of handling this in a fully-backwards-compatible way. Users of older LTS distributions like Ubuntu 16.04 should continue to build Flatpak with Autotools. Signed-off-by: Simon McVittie <smcv@collabora.com>
