Currently, python2.pkgs.pycairo, which is transitively depended on by GIMP, is failing on staging-next due to Meson crashing in configure step:

It appears that Meson (a Python 3 app) is picking up python2.pkgs.typing from a transitive dependency in checkInputs (likely introduced in 58f6365), and we were just lucky that we did not encounter this sooner (thanks to Meson being largely self-contained).
