Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-x11 mailing list
<x11 at FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 227423: graphics/wayland: update to 1.15 (libwayland-egl NOW LIVES HERE!)
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227423



--- Description ---
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2018-April/037767.html

The biggest change:

> libwayland-egl is now part of libwayland, and will presumably be removed
from mesa in the not too distant future.

This is good news for us! All ports that depend on libwayland-egl can now
enable Wayland by default, independently of what happens in the Mesa port.

(Wayland-EGL *working* still requires building Mesa with the Wayland platform,
but only rebuilding Mesa instead of every UI toolkit is significantly easier.)
