The hook KB-H014 conflicts with Meson's default behavior of creating .a static libraries on Windows to avoid using the .lib extension for both import libraries and static libraries. This is documented here.

This is a problem in PR conan-io/conan-center-index#20623.

@jwillikers Thank you for the information! That's unexpected, I mean, I really didn't know about .a working on Windows ... It needs a fix indeed.

I didn't either, but that really make distinguishing between import and static libraries less confusing on Windows.

@uilianries @RubenRBS This also effects conan-io/conan-center-index#22974.
