A manual symlink "/usr/lib/dri" -> "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri" actually saved my day ;o) "DRI" is working again. Now, one can have a relaxed look at the bug itself. Btw, the monolithic X.org RC2 package contains a "Mesa" version which is more recent, tagged as version "6.4.1". This update should be cheap to incorporate into "rawhide".
There's a neat surprise in store for you. ;o) Whenever I fix the mesa package, and you upgrade to the new package, your system will probably break due to that symlink. ;o) If I were you, I would flag your yum.conf to exclude the mesa-libGL package from the list of updates, and then watch the lists for indication that mesa is fixed, then remove the symlink, tweak your yum config, and update. Just an idea. ;o)
Finally, one might also consider a sort of "compat-xorg-x11" package to accomodate the needs of older packages, which might only exist in binary form, e.g. "Mathematica".
Bwahahahahaha! ;oP
PS: "X/OpenGL Maintainence List (xgl-maint@xxxxxxxxxx)" ^^^^ Ouch! Could somebody have a look at this? I am not a native speaker, but this appears to be quite exotic. This usually writes "Maintenance", doesn't it?
Illiteracy runs rampant, even at Red Hat! ;o) Fortunately, it wasn't I who created this internal mailing list, so I get to laugh and point fingers with the rest of you at whoever it was. ;oP -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
