I tend to agree with Khem; this change will pull in target python as build and runtime dependency to all meson-using recipes, even those that have nothing to do with python.

Ok, it depends on python3-setuptools-native I will add this inherit on waffle recipe.

I'd suggest you fix the broken recipes individually by adding python3 to DEPENDS. Yes, the "not a valid python" message is not helpful; suggestions how to improve this are welcome.

I wonder if it’s better to add this inherit to waffle recipe alone I doubt that all meson using recipes are building python modules 

This issue is triggered from waffle [1] but the actual meson code looks for setuptools [2].
