In mesa-20.2.4, this was a symlink:

$ file 
/gnu/store/m59c9hj9d4n65maimbpmx2xq56d2mvqs-mesa-20.2.4/lib/dri/i965_dri.so
/gnu/store/m59c9hj9d4n65maimbpmx2xq56d2mvqs-mesa-20.2.4/lib/dri/i965_dri.so: 
symbolic link to i915_dri.so

My guess is that i915 was thrown out at some point, or i965 got a
proper driver at which (or a later) time the i965 hardware became
incompatible with the i915 driver.

The problem I'm having is that neither the i915 nor the i965 driver are
present in mesa-23.0.3/lib/dri/, which is what kodi asks for.  They are
also not in the newest mesa-23.3.2/lib/dri/.
