Same thing here. > I feel I should qualify that a bit more. IMO, Mesa and LibDRM, along with *XCB*, should be moved back to the Xorg section for a linear installation.

Precedence and consistency are more important, however, and it was decided long ago not to do this as they are not required and they are not a part of the official distribution.
