Hi!  It looks like the Meson build of `dia` fails to complete in the version
of Guix shown below:

```
$ LANG=C guix describe
Generation 56   May 02 2023 11:25:26    (current)
  guix 3f8c489
    repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
    branch: master
    commit: 3f8c4899a9a67bb509a603bd21dcfcfab88c0e8e
```

This is the final part of the build log:

```

```

I know nothing about Meson, but the error reminds me of
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/53182>, and I see that its fix 3969dc45 added
`(arguments `(#:meson ,meson-0.59))`, which was removed later in f38d8e05.

Thanks and have a nice day!
