Compile failure with mesa-7.7_rc2.ebuild iff gallium USE flag is enabled and xorg-server is not installed. It needs the xorg-server.pc file for some reason.
Care to provide a full build.log please? Thanks

Thanks
Mesa now depends on xorg-server properly
NAK, let's disable building the xorg state tracker instead of creating another painful circular dep loop.
Any idea what I should do to actually install X on a new machine now? xorg-server-1.7.3.901-r1 requires gl (which is supplied by mesa) to build, but mesa requires xorg-server to build....
Ah, I just need to re-sync. Sorry for the noise. Ran into the problem yesterday morning, but didn't check b.g.o. until today. Thanks for the hard work during the holiday!

After these changes, emerging mesa with gallium now doesn't install this file: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/modesetting_drv.so This means KMS will not work, which is kinda the whole point of the mesa 7 series, no? :)
(In reply to comment #9) > This means KMS will not work, which is kinda the whole point of the mesa 7 > series, no? :) No, this is mesa installing a Xorg driver for _all_ chips that are supported via a KMS driver... Confusing, but don't worry, KMS will still work, Mesa's Xorg state tracker (modesetting_drv.so) is still very much experimental. Thanks
