Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
for the planned media-libs/mesa-7.11 stabilization, the default radeon |
| 4 |
r600 driver changes from classic to gallium. Users who upgrade from |
| 5 |
mesa-7.10 will not be switched automatically. I promised in |

| 7 |
to make a news item when that happens. |
| 8 |
|

Question is, can I put the EAPI 2 USE conditional |
| 10 |
"media-libs/mesa[video_cards_radeon]" in Display-If-Installed: or not? I |
| 11 |
don't find any explicit mentioning. GLEP 42 (which predates EAPI 2) just |
| 12 |
says "a dependency atom". |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Possible answers: |
| 15 |
1. If an EAPI is approved for use in the portage tree, its USE syntax |
| 16 |
can also be used for news items. |
| 17 |
2. Council must approve EAPIs for news items |
| 18 |
3. A new GLEP or new version of the News-Item-Format is necessary |
| 19 |

Your thoughts? Am I missing something? |

Best regards, |
