The classic OSMesa renders directly into user memory using src/mesa/swrast, while gallium OSMesa renders using softpipe or llvmpipe and copies out at glFlush() time. This would make gallium look like a worse choice for OSMesa, except that swrast is: 1) Painfully slow to render compared to llvmpipe 2) Incorrect at derivatives 3) Limited to GL 2.1 instead of GL 4.6 In my survey of OSMesa users, debian was the remaining holdout with classic OSMesa in use on hurd and some rare non-LLVM-supported architectures (sh4, alpha, etc.). As of today, they've switched to softpipe-based gallium OSMesa for them. To prevent people from running the wrong OSMesa (to the extent that running OSMesa can ever be the right thing), delete the classic version.

`Mesa <https://mesa3d.org>`_ - The 3D Graphics Library ====================================================== Source ------ This repository lives at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa. Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported. Build & install --------------- You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.rst <https://mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use Meson (`docs/meson.rst <https://mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_): .. code-block:: sh $ mkdir build $ cd build $ meson .. $ sudo ninja install Support ------- Many Mesa devs hang on IRC; if you're not sure which channel is appropriate, you should ask your question on `Freenode's #dri-devel <irc://chat.freenode.net#dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if necessary. Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might take a while before someone qualified sees your question. To figure out who you're talking to, or which nick to ping for your question, check out `Who's Who on IRC <https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/WhosWho/>`_. The next best option is to ask your question in an email to the mailing lists: `mesa-dev\@lists.freedesktop.org <https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev>`_ Bug reports ----------- If you think something isn't working properly, please file a bug report (`docs/bugs.rst <https://mesa3d.org/bugs.html>`_). Contributing ------------ Contributions are welcome, and step-by-step instructions can be found in our documentation (`docs/submittingpatches.rst <https://mesa3d.org/submittingpatches.html>`_). Note that Mesa uses gitlab for patches submission, review and discussions.
