Change Details

I have noticed that `mesalib` on Solus defaults to `i965` for pre-Gen8 hardware, and manually forcing to `crocus` (at this point, mainly for testing), spits out errors due to `cocus_dri.so` missing from `/usr/lib64/dri/`. Is there any reason that `mesalib` is still being compiled without Crocus support on Solus, despite it being supported in mainline for some time already? If there isn't a specific blocker, perhaps it would be a good idea to compile `mesalib` with Crocus support, at least so that we could verify that there aren't any issues ahead of Mesa demoting `i965` to legacy (I realize that this wouldn't prevent Solus from including `i965` support even after upgrading `mesalib` to the relevant version, however this could still be relevant for things such as lowering CPU overhead).
