If we have Mesa require Mesa-dri, we are back to the problem that anything pulling ni Mesa-headers must wait for llvm to build, even though nothing uses any dri driver in a build environment (and believe me, wating for llvm is nothing you want to do)
But why were they moved from Mesa to Mesa-dri? Is it an option to just move them back?
Moving them back is a no-go: The Mesa package needed to be split to stop a build-dependency on LLVM; this is too expensive and continuisly blcoked the entire distro from building. With this split of Mesa/Mesa- drivers, we can much better parallelize the build of the distro (and react sooner to issues) Cheers Dominique
