Reading through that bug I understand the reason va-driver-all isn't seeded is because there are other VA drivers which are not in main.
So I see the following potential paths forward to solve this issue: 1) Merge mesa-va-drivers binary package into mesa like other distros have. 2) Add mesa-va-drivers as a Recommends for mesa binary package. 3) Seed mesa-va-drivers in the ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop-minimal seeds. 4) MIR for any other VA drivers not in main already, followed by seeding va-driver-all in ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop-minimal seeds. 5) Do nothing - no hardware acceleration by default for mesa packages. As same mesa source packages are used for Debian doing 1 or 2 will also benefit Debian too. Doing 3 and 4 are solutions purely in seeding. 3 could be done in the short term and when MIR team is done switch to 4. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2135270 Title: mesa-va-drivers should be seeded by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libva/+bug/2135270/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
