This eselect-mesa bug[1] needs at least some hacky workaround treatment before |
11 |
final and proper eselect solution is implemented. |
12 |
|
13 |
It breaks opengl/graphics stack in a really sneaky way as nothing gets |
14 |
eselected and absolutely no errors produced or displayed. |
15 |
|
16 |
sddm breaks, and some other X/OpenGL features do not work. |
17 |
I have a patch from the bugreport in /etc/portage/patches for now, but |
18 |
it takes users a while to figure it out why X11 or mesa was partially broken. |
19 |
|
20 |
Can this bug be given some priority treatment? |
21 |
This will provide much smoother profile switch experience for desktop users. |
22 |
Rest of LIBDIR bugs break software/build in a more obvious way and easy do |
23 |
detect and work around or fix. |
