I'll try seeing if I'm able to get it to work with it split back.

&gt; One of the things I want to mention is about the mesa-dri and mesa-libs <br>
&gt; split. I found that merging them back to graphics/mesa made it so that I <br>
&gt; can launch Plasma Wayland after much build testing and experimentation. <br>
&gt; Beforehand, Plasma Wayland would act as if the radeonsi driver didn&#39;t <br>
&gt; exist (it was installed) until I did this approach.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Also in Mesa 26, libosmesa got removed and there are some ports that <br>
&gt; still have it as a build option or hardcodes the dep.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; I&#39;m hoping to get Mesa updated in the ports tree to help the community. :)<br>
&gt; <br>
While I have something similar with -dri and -libs merged back into a <br>
singular port, manu@ (with x11@ hat) has told me on separate occasions <br>
that merging is a non-starter. This is complicated by how to deal with <br>
