Following the discussion here, I've come to the conclusion that I made a bad |
| 17 |
call w/r to removing dri from default/linux after learning more about its |
| 18 |
effect. Summarizing, USE=dri |
| 19 |
* is the recommended default anytime |
| 20 |
* is needed in particular also in the embedded case (about as far from desktop |
| 21 |
as possible) |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Discussion here and on #g-dev presented two options, either |
| 24 |
* enabling dri in all relevant ebuilds as default-on, or |
| 25 |
* re-adding it to the profile. |

Chí-Thanh, who is the maintainer of the relevant packages, prefers a central |
| 28 |
setting. We've talked about this once more on IRC, I've reverted the profile |
| 29 |
commit and USE=dri is again enabled in default/linux/make.defaults. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
[We can still migrate to IUSE="+dri" in the ebuilds over time but that is a |
| 32 |
separate issue.] |

I am sorry for any inconvenience this has caused. |
