I was updating my Mesa build setup, having not looked carefully at it
for about a year, and I became confused about the version of the
upstream git HEAD. Running 'grep -C 1 VERSION Makefile' gives me:
PACKAGE_VERSION=8.1-devel
PACKAGE_DIR = Mesa-$(PACKAGE_VERSION)
PACKAGE_NAME = MesaLib-$(PACKAGE_VERSION)
This looks right, since I know that version 8.0 was released quite some
time ago. Running 'grep -B 4 MESA_VERSION configs/default' gives me this:
# Version info
MESA_MAJOR=8
MESA_MINOR=0
MESA_TINY=0
MESA_VERSION = $(MESA_MAJOR).$(MESA_MINOR).$(MESA_TINY)
I am not a developer (yet), so it's not even clear to me that the env.
variable MESA_VERSION is even used anywhere. The only external
consequences (that I can find) seem unimportant:
$ for f in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/gl{,u}.pc; do \
echo " File: $f"; cat "$f" | grep Version; echo; done
File: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/gl.pc
Version: 8.0.0
File: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/glu.pc
Version: 8.0.0
Not exactly earth-shattering. I just thought I would mention it in case
someone cares.
FYI,
Dave W.
