Bernd, All,

On 2014-03-09 20:01 +0100, Bernd Kuhls spake thusly:

Maybe it would be nice to give in the commit log a bit more details on
why it makes sense to move it out of x11r7.

If I understand correctly, mesa3d is an implementation of OpenGL. So,
*maybe* it would make sense to move it along the other OpenGL packages,
into package/opengl/.

But I'd like others to confirm this first.

Otherwise, looks good.

Yann E. MORIN.

mesa3d does not depend on x11, it can be used by wayland as well.

In package/opengl/ are only virtual packages.

Just add this in the commit log. ;-)

Right. Mesa3D is more on the provider-side, indeed. So no need to put it
in package/opengl. OK. ;-)

Some quick thoughts:

1. As Mesa3D is an implementation of OpenGL, it will be a provider for the
   virtual packages libegl, libgles and libopenvg.

2. Mesa3D also provides libgl, but:

  - no package in Buildroot requires full OpenGL.
  - Buildroot is unlikely to include packages for AMD/NVidia/Intel drivers
    (providers for libgl).

  So there is no need for a libgl virtual package.

3. IMHO package/opengl should only contain the definitions of the virtual
   packages, not the providers (otherwise sunxi-mali should be moved to
   package/opengl too!).

Best regards,
ELB

I've looked on my distro, and mesa3d does not provide any file named
libegl*.so or ligles*.so or libopenvg*.so. So I don't think it should
be, *as is*, a provider for libegl, libgles or libopenvg.

> 2. Mesa3D also provides libgl, but:

libgl or libglx ?

On my distro (Ubuntu 13.10), there's no libgl.so, only libglx.so which
is provided by a bumch of different packages, of which the nvidia blobs.

All I have that looks to be from mesa3d if libglapi.so.

Unlikely, but what about a powerfull, game-console-class device using a
NVidia (or Intel, AMD) GPU?

>   So there is no need for a libgl virtual package.

Indeed, so no need to provide a virtul package for that as long as we do
not have a real user. It will always be time to add it later. And it's
not like it would be rocket-science to do it! :-)

Yes, I already replied to Bernd in this direction: mesa3d treads on the
provider side. So like other GL providers, it does not really belong to
package/opengl.

Yann E. MORIN.

 Have you looked at libegl1-mesa, libgles2-mesa, libopenvg1-mesa?

 That one is in libgl1-mesa-glx.

 All that stuff is only installed if you need it - which you usually
don't because glx is enough for desktop use.

Indeed, I was looking for libegl, not libEGL. And apt-file is not smart
enough to do a case-insensitive search by default, so now:

    $ apt-file search -i libegl |grep -E '\.so'
    [...]
    libegl1-mesa: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa-egl/libEGL.so.1.0.0
    [...]

    $ apt-file search -i libgles |grep -E '\.so'
    [...]
    libgles1-mesa: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa-egl/libGLESv1_CM.so.1.1.0
    [...]
    libgles2-mesa: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa-egl/libGLESv2.so.2.0.0
    [...]

    $ apt-file search -i libopenvg |grep -E '\.so'
    [...]
    libopenvg1-mesa: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa-egl/libOpenVG.so.1.0.0
    [...]

OK, good. So mesa3d can be added as a provider for libegl, libgles and
libopenvg, indeed. It can be done in a separate patch, later.

Yann E. MORIN.

Hi,

xbmc depends on libGL.so ;)
