Mesa 10.2 Release Notes / June 6, 2014
======================================
Mesa 10.2 is a new development release. People who are concerned with
stability and reliability should stick with a previous release or wait
for Mesa 10.2.1.
Mesa 10.2 implements the OpenGL 3.3 API, but the version reported by
glGetString(GL_VERSION) or glGetIntegerv(GL_MAJOR_VERSION) /
glGetIntegerv(GL_MINOR_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being
used. Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL
3.3. OpenGL 3.3 is **only** available if requested at context creation
because compatibility contexts are not supported.

Bug fixes
---------
TBD.
Changes
-------
- Renamed *--with-llvm-shared-libs* to *--enable-llvm-shared-libs*
The option is used to control how mesa is linked against LLVM, and
now defaults to enabled (shared linking).
- Split *libxatracker.so* into a standalone library which can be used
with any gallium driver.
Previously the library was linked statically against vmware's virtual
gpu driver(svga), whereas now it loads a shared pipe_*.so driver.
Provide the following options during configure, if you would like
support for svga driver *--enable-xa --with-gallium-drivers=svga*
Note: The files are installed in $(libdir)/gallium-pipe/ and the
interface between them and libxatracker.so is **not** stable.
- The environment variable GALLIUM_MSAA that forced a multisample GLX
visual was removed.
