** Description changed:

  Hi,
  
  This is essentially a renamed mesa 21.3.x, in order to support 'classic'
- DRI drivers which got removed upstream from 22.0 and up. I doubt there's
- a need for a thorough MIR process to let this through? It's needed for
- image builds.
+ DRI drivers which got removed upstream from 22.0 and up. The amber
+ branch was created as an LTS one to support these old drivers.
+ 
+ This only builds what is needed for the classic DRI drivers, nothing
+ else is shipped than what these require. The upstream merge request has
+ more as to why:

+ https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/10557
+ 
+ I doubt there's a need for a thorough MIR process to let this through?
+ It's needed for image builds, or HW support for older GPU's would be
+ lacking.
  
  I've asked kernel team to be added as a bug subscriber.
