Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-x11 mailing list
<x11 at FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 242892: graphics/waffle: update to 1.6.0, build with meson, add xdg-shell
support
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242892



--- Description ---
- Waffle moved to freedesktop gitlab
- Now supports building with Meson, which allows us to remove all the CMake
patches from the port
- New version generates CMake config with 'Waffle' named variables (which
devel/apitrace expects) instead of 'WAFFLE'
- (git rev instead of just 1.6.0 is used because CMake config generation was
added to Meson build)
- Extra xdg-shell patch
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/waffle/merge_requests/60 to make
devel/apitrace 'eglretrace' work on modern Wayland compositors (wlroots has
removed the old wl-shell protocol, so this is required to make apitrace's debug
trace replays work on sway/wayfire/…)
- All backends are now options (on by default)
- Manpages are now built
- The only in-tree consumer for now (piglit) builds fine, at least with a small
patch that adds a missing EGL_NO_CONFIG_MESA define. IDK if that's related to
Waffle, it's probably actually because I have the current dev version of mesa.
I'll post that piglit patch separately.
