Details

As of version 1.5.10, wine can use libOSMesa for opengl acceleration in the DIB engine.

I tried installing osmesa and rebuild wine, but it didn't work.

./configure reported:

checking for GL/osmesa.h... yes
...
checking for -lOSMesa... not found
...
configure: libOSMesa development files not found (or too old), OpenGL rendering in bitmaps won't be supported.

I haven't found a solution (yet), but it might be a good idea to add osmesa as a dependency.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Upstream
Additional comments about closing:  Upstream problem and nothing we can do about it. Nag wine about it. If wine supports the new version of osmesa, it will automatically be built in the respective wine release.

lib32-osmesa is now available in our multilib repo.

I'm pretty sure OSMesa is a pure software renderer.

Is this even any good?

I believe osmesa is mesa's implentation of offscreen rendering for opengl. If this is the case, it's a logical direction for the wine devs and a good reason for users to want it.

OSMesa is needed if you don't have proper 3D acceleration. Which, for a server, is almost always the case.

Can we please have this built in? I actually plan to use it.
