[03:15] <duflu> RAOF: Can you help me out with a review here? https://code.launchpad.net/~vanvugt/mir/fix-1642504/+merge/311363
[03:15] <duflu> It's rather annoying not having a working server
[08:38] <tjaalton> hi, I'm thinking of proposing unrenamed mesa backports to lts (essentially upgrades the old one to new major release), but thought I should probably ask here too for your thoughts
[08:40]  * duflu doesn't understand at first
[08:40] <tjaalton> mesa on xenial would bump from 11.2.0 to 12.0.x
[08:40] <tjaalton> what's on yak
[08:41] <tjaalton> lts-hwe stacks have had mesa-lts-foo
[08:41] <tjaalton> which leaves the original one as is
[08:41] <duflu> tjaalton: There's an implied (not strongly enforced) ABI between egl-platform-mir in Mesa and libmirclient. I don't think that has broken in a long time(?) so it could be safe
[08:41] <tjaalton> yeah that's one thing I've considered
[08:41] <duflu> might be safe
[08:44] <duflu> tjaalton: It would still live in 'backports' right? Not used by default xenial
[08:44] <tjaalton> no, it would be in updates
[08:45] <duflu> My only objection then is that it's poor discipline to do a major upgrade in updates. But if it's X and we really need it to keep building a product on then... *shrug*
[08:46] <tjaalton> renamed mesa is a hassle
[08:48] <tjaalton> then again having just one lts-hwe stack makes it a bit easier, so that I might just drop this plan
[08:49] <duflu> True.. You might want to ask other timezones still -> mir-devel@lists.ubuntu.com
[08:49] <tjaalton> right
