I think this bug/SRU snowballed. Let's take a step back. It started with fixing two bugs: this one, and bug #1972977. At some point later, #1972977 was deemed not really fixed[1], and was dropped in the 0ubuntu0.3 upload[2].
That upload failed to build in jammy-proposed on arm64[3] and amd64[4]. It was deemed to be a problem introduced by some other jammy-proposed upload (unclear which one). A new upload was made to jammy unapproved[5] (still missing an update- maintainer run, btw), stating: Changes: mesa (22.0.5-0ubuntu0.4) jammy; urgency=medium . * Add a patch to build with a newer directx-headers. (LP: #1998893) . mesa (22.0.5-0ubuntu0.3) jammy; urgency=medium . * crocus-fix-leak-in-query-code.patch: Drop the patch so the other fix can get through to updates. . mesa (22.0.5-0ubuntu0.2) jammy; urgency=medium . * crocus-fix-leak-in-query-code.patch: Fix gnome-shell crashing on older Intel hw. (LP: #1972977) * patches: Update pci-id's for ADL-S/RPL-S. (LP: #1998893) That is quite a big patch in an area I know nothing about. My concerns are: - shouldn't we have a separate bug for the FTBFS? This bug here is about PCI IDs. - what is the other package in jammy proposed that is breaking this build? Must it be released at the same time as mesa? - the original PR[6] mentioned in the DEP3 header of the FTBFS patch is huge and complex, is that (and the backport done here) really the minimal fix for the FTBFS? - what are the other changes incurring via this patch, now the the build is fixed? What else is changing? What is the risk analysis of that change? I feel there is a lot of missing information, but it could just be because I'm not familiar with mesa and the graphic/3d stack. So I prefer to leave this review for another SRU team member, but thought I should leave this comment here instead of just "disappearing" :) 1. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1972977/comments/15 2. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/22.0.5-0ubuntu0.3 3. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/22.0.5-0ubuntu0.3/+build/25458695 4. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/22.0.5-0ubuntu0.3/+build/25458694 5. https://launchpadlibrarian.net/645131833/mesa_22.0.5-0ubuntu0.4_source.changes 6. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/15751/diffs -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1998893 Title: NV reverse prime HDMI has no output To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1998893/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
