https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D191776 --- Comment #8 from Jean-S=C3=A9bastien P=C3=A9dron <dumbbell@FreeBSD.org> = --- Mesa 10.3 is available now on upcoming FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE. Mesa 9.1 is st= ill the version provided on FreeBSD 8.x, 9.x and 10.0. The problem is our Intel driver which gain a feature required by Mesa 9.2 and later in 10.1-RELEASE only. xf86-video-ati-7.5.0 will be available in the future too. We didn't commit 7.4.0 because it crashes for some users. So as soon as we are comfortable w= ith 7.5.0, it will hit the Ports tree. Now, xserver 1.15 or 1.16 is another problem. It depends on Mesa 9.2 which isn't available on all releases, as mentionned above. We could resurrect so= me kind of WITH_NEW_XORG but I'm sure no developer wants that again. It's a re= al pain to maintain, difficult to implement properly (ie. with options to perm= it all combinations desired by the users) and very confusing for everyone in t= he end. It took us a long time to get rid of it, we don't want to add it again= now :) The real proper solution is to implement the "Provides" feature I talked ab= out in my previous comment. Meanwhile, there's the xorg-dev repository for users willing to use more modern ports. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
