Description A. Person 2014-06-25 15:34:17 UTC

media-tv/xbmc on my Pandaboard ES requires media-libs/mesa[gles2] to compile, otherwise I get:

checking for main in -lEGL... yes 
checking for main in -lGLESv2... no 
configure: error: Could not find a required library. Please see the README for your platform. 

Reproducible: Always

That's xbmc-13.0_p2.

Comment 2 Michael Mausolf 2014-06-25 15:46:13 UTC

I had the same problem on my Raspbery Pi. On my amd64 system I have mesa without gles2 use flag and xbmc builds fine. So it might be somehow ARM specific.

There is no GLES on non-embbeded systems. Depending on it for x86 systems won't work.

No idea if depending on it for arm arch is a good idea.

the lines between embedded/non-embedded don't really exist anymore.  you can buy laptops that support GLES.

should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report!
