* casync now supports retrieving index and chunk data from sftp:// URLs. (In
addition to the existing ftp://, http:// and https:// support).
* casync will now honour $TMP if it is set, for placing temporary files and
directories.
* casync now saves/restores basic btrfs subvolume information. (Specifically it
will store whether a directory is a subvolume, and whether it has the
read-only bit set.) Control this metadata option with the new
--with=subvolume/--without=subvolume and
--with=subvolume-ro/--without=subvolume-ro switches.
* casync now saves/restores SELinux label information. Control this metadata
option with the new --with=selinux/--without=selinux switches.
* The libgcrypt dependency has been replaced with an OpenSSL dependency, as
that appears to be better supported today, and may be used to generate
SHA512/256 hashes (see below).
* casync now permits selecting the hash function to use with the new --digest=
option. SHA512/256 is now supported in addition to the old SHA256 algorithm,
which continues to be supported. The new default however is SHA512/256, as it
is substantially faster at otherwise equal properties on today's 64bit
processors. In specific environments SHA256 might perform better, hence both
algorithms remain supported. Index files contain information about the hash
algorithm used, hence automatic compatibility is retained.
* casync now permits selecting the compression format to use with the new
option --compression=. In addition to the originally reported xz compression,
gzip and zstd compression are now supported, the latter being the new default
as it provides excellent compression at very high speeds. It's OK to mix
chunks compressed with different algorithms in the same store, but of course
clients downloading them need to be new enough to read chunks in non-xz
formats. Note that the file suffix for compressed chunks changed ".xz" →
".cacnk", as they now may contain either compression, and continuing to use
the ".xz" suffix would be misleading. To retain compatibility with older
casync, the environment variable $CASYNC_COMPRESSED_CHUNK_SUFFIX may be set
to ".xz", to force usage of the old suffix.
* When extracting archives or archive indexes a subset of the metadata stored
in the archive may now be selected to be replayed, using the usual --with=
and --without= options. For example, if an archive containing full metadata
is extracted with --without=privileged only the unprivileged metadata fields
are extracted (i.e. no file ownership, ACLs, SELinux labels, ...).
* After completing an operation statistics about downloaded chunks are now
shown.
* When invoking "casync mkdev" the third parameter may now be an arbitrarily
selected path below /dev which is then created as a symlink to the block
device used, and registered with udev. This means the usual device
enumeration will find the block device under the name picked. Example:
# casync mkdev /somepath/tomy/index-file.caibx /dev/quux
This will expose the block image /somepath/tomy/index-file.caibx as /dev/quux.

rpmlint mentiones the missing group: in its own way too:
casync.src: W: non-standard-group Unspecified casync.x86_64: W: non-standard-group Unspecified
+%meson_build +sphinx-build -b man doc build/doc
Why do you need to manually build the man pages after? The meson build system contains instructions to do the man pages directly (and the option seems to be enabled by default)

Nice feature, I'll supersede this request.

Just curious, to understand myself (no reason for decline)
Why is the test suite conditionalized (it is running bye default, so that is fine already; which is why I also said no decline reason)
And a small hint here again: export LANG=C.UTF-8 is part of the %meson_test macro; at least on openSUSE (other distros might not have done it, as C.UTF-8 is not even upstream glibc so far)
As this was part of the py2pack templates I thought that it should be that way. It turned out, it should not be conditionalized... As other reviewers then declined my SRs because of that I got that removed from the py2pack templates finally. And now I remove that from all the packages when I see these macros again.
Nice, will test that.
For some packages it made sense to disable the test suites, especially when it's really expensive, either in time or by needed dependencies.
Meson is actually a 'good example' for this - where meson itself is built with the test suite disabled, and then a 2nd package done for mesons test suite (which has an insane amount of additional build deps)
as for meson_test:
That's how the macro is defined on openSUSE (the LANG= export is an openSUSE addition, deviating from upstream's original macros)
