> If it were up to me then the rule would be whether OpenGL is supported in the associated Mesa and kernel drivers
Until recently, QEMU/QXL would have been without display drivers by your standard, including LTS releases that will be supported for quite some time still. Given the default targets including new Pis as they come out, that standard would remove entire targets from Ubuntu's purview that are works in progress. Given that Vulkan is becoming a common backend and LLVMPipe exists, how does OpenGL of an unlisted version even make sense? This standard also has changed since you originally said a year based range and subsequently modified it when I posted the actual dates relating to new products and sale ranges. > xserver-xorg-video-all is a metapackage Metapackages have both depends and recommends all the time. That is the norm. Both the Intel and QXL X11 packages are recommends of xserver- xorg-video-all, not required dependencies. In fact, even xorg has a recommended package for scalable x fonts. I am just asking that an old ATI package for a dead company, gets the same treatment as Intel regarding recommended status even though Intel is still alive. Intel still gets pulled in by default. Nothing has changed there. This isn't explicit removal, at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1956128 Title: xserver-xorg-video-all requires xserver-xorg-video-ati To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1956128/+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
