mesa: remove dummy transitional packages
Related to #20861 as well. I'm making this PR also to open the discussion about it. Last mesa reorganization was made by @st3r4g (from what I could gather looking at commits and stuff), and they suggested the removal of those packages.

A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/20889.patch is attached

Re: [PR PATCH] [Updated] mesa: remove dummy transitional packages

There is an updated pull request by ericonr against master on the void-packages repository

https://github.com/ericonr/void-packages mesa-remove-transitional
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/20889

mesa: remove dummy transitional packages
Related to #20861 as well. I'm making this PR also to open the discussion about it. Last mesa reorganization was made by @st3r4g (from what I could gather looking at PRs), and they suggested the removal of those packages.

Perhaps the only packages that could be advantageous to keep would be those that have dependencies beyond mesa-dri. Like the Intel, Nouveau and ATI ones.

A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/20889.patch is attached

Comment:
Well this is not what I meant in #20861. I suggested to purge the obsolete `mesa-*-dri-dbg` binary packages, not the dummy templates, that are still required for people who have not updated yet their system after the reorganization. It's been only ~5 months, Maybe it's better to wait a bit more.

Comment:
Well this is not what I meant in #20861. I suggested to purge the obsolete `mesa-*-dri-dbg` binary packages (only repoadmins can do this), not the dummy templates, that are still required for people who have not updated yet their system after the reorganization. It's been only ~5 months, Maybe it's better to wait a bit more.

I made them like that because e.g. `mesa-intel-dri` had vulkan inside, so that users got the equivalent new packages after the reorganization.

Comment:
@st3r4g shit, sorry. I might have jumped the gun a bit. I had thought about the update path for people still using the old packages, but hadn't realized it had been changed so little time ago. I should probably close it then.

There's a closed pull request on the void-packages repository

mesa: remove dummy transitional packages
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/20889

Description:
Related to #20861 as well. I'm making this PR also to open the discussion about it. Last mesa reorganization was made by @st3r4g (from what I could gather looking at PRs), and they suggested the removal of those packages.

Perhaps the only packages that could be advantageous to keep would be those that have dependencies beyond mesa-dri. Like the Intel, Nouveau and ATI ones.
