I am installing desktop system using x86 Gentoo. Trying to build mesa using live ebuild from x11 overlay on system without X fails because mesa needs xorg-server. As xorg-server has >=media-libs/mesa-7.8_rc in RDEPEND it would make a circular dependency if one would simply put xorg-server into mesa dependencies. Simplest solution for now is to emerge =media-libs/mesa-7.11.2, build xorg-server and then update to newer mesa... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Just try to emerge xorg-server on system without it after unmasking live mesa... Actual Results: configure: error: Package requirements (xvmc >= 1.0.6 xorg-server) were not met: No package 'xorg-server' found Additional informations will be attached: emerge --info, build logs.
Created attachment 297049 [details] emerge --info =media-libs/mesa-9999
Created attachment 297051 [details] Build log for media-libs/mesa-9999
Not really a bug, is it? The thing to do here is to build Mesa without USE=xvmc, then build the X server, and then build Mesa with USE=xvmc if you really want it.
Actually, this problem was fixed upstream by http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/configure.ac?id=c2e2b58a58880c9b9f189fc154205e99144e9502
