"-listen tcp" in X command line

Dear maintainers,

The problem of "-listen tcp" comes from meson.build file:
Line 95 we have the following:
  # Xserver 1.17 & later default to -nolisten and require -listen for
remote access
  xserver_deps = dependency('xorg-server', version : '>=1.17', required :
false)
  xserver_has_listen = xserver_deps.found()

I'm running Debian testing so my Xserver revision should be > 1.17.
If I run the command used by meson "dependency" so pkg-config --version
xorg-server the command return 1.8.1

So I guess than for Xserver 1.17, pkg-config --version xorg-server should
have answer 1.1.7 (or 1.7).

I did update meson.build file with xserver_deps = dependency('xorg-server',
version : '>=1.7', required : false)

And now when i run ps -ef |grep X i have:

/usr/lib/xorg/Xorg vt2 -displayfd 3 -auth /run/user/1131/gdm/Xauthority
-listen tcp -background none -noreset -keeptty -novtswitch -verbose 3

Can you please update meson.build file and definitively close this topic ?

Thanks ans regards,

Andre
