Bug Description
I happened to notice that the bump from 23.0.4 to 23.2.1 in jammy included a change that dropped a number of transitional packages:
mesa (23.1.4-1) unstable; urgency=medium
[ Diederik de Haas ]
* Drop transitional libegl1-mesa package (Closes: #1032712)
* Drop transitional libgles2-mesa package (Closes: #1032718)
* Drop transitional libwayland-
* Drop transitional libgl1-mesa-glx package (Closes: #1032738)
* d/README.source: Update git repo location to Salsa
Since I did not see that discussed in the SRU bug 2037604, I thought I'd call attention to it. No objection to this being closed as Won't Fix.
I don't think this impacts any supported upgrade paths - focal GA'd w/ 20.0.4-2ubuntu1 which seems to have already had these transitional packages in place. This is presumably a practical regression for someone upgrading an old bionic install straight to jammy but that, of course, is not supported.
right, it shouldn't be an issue really, so don't think these are coming back
