This, and the following commit (using this package in py-setuptools) breaks
release building, because the chain of dependencies
   git-lite -> curl -> brotli -> cmake-core -> csoncpp -> meson
ends up with meson depending on py311-wheel-0.45.1 directly and depending on
py311-wheel044-0.44.0 indirectly (via py311-setuptools).

Please stop breaking things.
