Description ferret 2009-12-14 22:16:51 UTC

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.

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.

Comment 6 Willie Wong 2009-12-27 17:43:20 UTC

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!

Comment 9 ferret 2009-12-30 00:10:28 UTC

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? :)

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
