[arch-general] Mesa 9.1 in testing
New unified Mesa has hit testing. Upgrade path went smooth here. Please test it. Now the main mesa pkg should provide everything required to build and link packages. The mesa-libgl pkg providing libgl should be not be used in the dependency array when linking to libgl.so - please use "libgl" that will allow users to choose also nvidia-utils or catalyst-utils. There are still packages in extra depending on the old libgl package. We will need to fix them before makepkg will properly allow to build only against new mesa. -Andy

everything went fine during the upgrade. libglapi, libgbm, libgles, libegl, khrplatform-devel, libgl were removed while mesa was upgraded and mesa-libgl added. everything seems to work fine with the free intel & ati drivers. (don't have catalyst installed.) system appears to run a wee bit hotter (~3 deg.) after the update, but that may be due to a variety of reasons. (i'm sometimes affected by https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/32025 -- FS#32025 - [linux] 3.6.2 - 3.7.x results laptop 10 degrees warmer.) -- phani.
