Not that bad of idea, but should you _explicitly_ ensure that say no API gets removed.
Before you ask - there's [at least] two components which link against libdrm_amdgpu.so and have unresolved/unsolved symbols. If any symbol gets removed existing, these packages will break. This is how things broke with nouveau and you don't want to repeat that. Tl;Dr; I'd opt for Christian's suggestion ;-) Regards, Emil _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/amd-gfx
