Hello,

We are currently attempting to update from Weston 9.0.0 to Weston 10+ and 
facing issues with GLES2 compatibility at both build time and run time.

For instance, gl_renderer_setup() exits with error if GL_EXT_unpack_subimage is 
not present. Other code explicitly includes GLES3/gl3.h and uses pixel formats 
from GL_EXT_texture_storage.

We are using Mali 400 with proprietary Arm userspace GL drivers, which supports 
only GLES2 without extensions above.

Could you please clarify whether for Weston 10+ GLES3 is now mandatory 
dependency? Was this highlighted in any release notes?

If so, then we have to freeze Weston on version 9.0.0.

Could you please explain is it safe to keep updating all other Wayland 
components (client, protocols, xwayland), and keep only Weston compositor 
downgraded to 9.0.0? I tested and see that such combination works properly. 
Though I am not sure if that is the correct approach, or it might cause issues. 
And instead we have to downgrade all the Wayland components to the same older 
version (in our case: client 1.19, protocols 1.21, weston 9.0.0).

Thanks,
Daniel
