I have to get back to this.

For the gnome tracker case I have in the recipe

| # full text search requires sqlite3 build with PACKAGECONFIG[fts5] set
| PACKAGECONFIG[fts] = "-Dfts=true,-Dfts=false"

and was happy to handle it correctly the OE way

| MESON_CROSS_EXTRA_PROPS =
"sqlite3_has_fts5='${@bb.utils.contains('PACKAGECONFIG', 'fts',
'true', 'false', d)}'"
