Are you installing/maintaining your machine with --no-recommends?
I am, indeed. But in this case, IMHO, it should be required and no "just" recommended...?
Difficult to say - since there are multiple Mesa-dri-* packages (that supplement Mesa and other X-related graphics drivers). Simply requiring 'any dri driver' might get you the wrong one installed on your system. 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) The only option I'd see with a requires is to break it up in OBS (which is possible, but something I really try to avoid, as it's often causing interesting bug reports as it's easy to confuse packagers) Cheers Dominique
