It's redundant with EGL surfaceless and it doesn't have much use. It's also available from the amber branch, so distros should get it from there if they want to continue packaging it.

Notes for macOS
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Mesa builds on macOS without modifications. However, there are some details to
|
|
be aware of.
|
|
|
|
- Mesa has a number of build-time dependencies. Most dependencies, including
|
|
Meson itself, are available in `homebrew <https://brew.sh>`__, which has a
|
|
Mesa package for reference. The exception seems to be Mako, a Python module
|
|
used for templating, which you can install as ``pip3 install mako``.
|
|
- macOS is picky about its build-time environment. Type ``brew sh`` before
|
|
building to get the Homebrew dependencies in your path.
|
|
|
|
Mesa's default builds with the Apple GLX uses Mesa as a front for the
|
|
hardware-accelerated system OpenGL framework, to provide hardware acceleration
|
|
to X11 applications on macOS running via XQuartz.
|
|
|
|
Mesa's Gallium drivers can be used on macOS by using the ``-Dgallium-drivers=<drivers>`` build option. Do not use with the previous software rasterizers options, instead add ``swrast`` to the ``<drivers>`` list. Only software renderers and drivers that forward to other APIs can work, any linux hardware drivers will not work. For details on each driver's macOS support see their specific documentation.
