meson build log

Build options can be seen here

And build log is of course attached. 

If I change _drm_amdgpu_ver to some fictional version number, drm_intel is promptly required to be that - so I hypothesize there must be some problem with the check.

Comment 1 Dylan Baker 2018-08-06 22:57:00 UTC

This is just a bug with the error message. It's not supported to mix and match different libdrm_<vendor> and libdrm core versions, so what meson does is checks each vendor's libdrm requirements based on the mesa drivers being built, then searches for the libdrm version that matches that. I guess we should probably fix the error message, although that might be no-trivial

Comment 2 mirh 2018-08-06 23:18:34 UTC

Sure, I can see that in the comment. 
But that would make for a hell of headbanging, was I to decide to just disable X vendor instead of upgrading the whole libdrm.

Comment 3 Dylan Baker 2018-10-23 16:07:12 UTC

I think this has been addressed, we now emit a message telling you which driver bumped the drm version.
