nvidia-driver vs. mesa-libs

Sun Sep 20 19:12:19 UTC 2020

Hi folks,

I'm running FreeBSD-stable amd64, updated monthly.  Every Sat.  night
I svn update and rebuild my ports with poudriere.  This has been
working smoothly for several years.  I have also been running
nvidia-driver for several years without issue.

This morning 'pkg upgrade' presents me with the following situation:

(I also try to pkg remove mesa-libs below this output)

Hmm, well what if I try removing mesa-libs?

[ List of most of my useful xorg packages elided. ]

Number of packages to be removed: 210

The operation will free 5 GiB.

Proceed with deinstalling packages? [y/N]:

(NOOOOOOOO!)

So I am unsure what to do in this situation.  It's the very first time
I believe in over 5 years that the package system might render my
system unusable.  Pretty good track record.

Any advice on resolving this conflict would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Russell
