+Subject: [PATCH] Handle build with older versions of GCC
+
+Older versions of GCC (prior to 9.1) did not put the `std::filesystem`
+support directly into libstdcpp, but in a separate `libstdc++fs`. Add
+meson logic to detect if an extra linker flag is necessary.
+
+Fixes #223.
+
+Tested on AlmaLinux 8 which uses GCC-8.

shared-mime-info-native fails to build on AlmaLinux 8 due to its use of GCC-8 and the upstream package missing a required `-lstdc++fs` on that compiler. Submitted a patch upstream which fixes this and am porting.
