--- Comment #2 from Stefan Hoffmeister <stefan.hoffmeister(a)econos.de> ---
This specific package apparently wraps
https://github.com/microsoft/DirectX-Headers - which effectively is "only" a
set of header files, to be located by pkgconfig. Any content is not expected to
be used.
For Fedora these headers are of interest to build the "d3d12" Mesa DRI driver
subset - and that is quite relevant for running Fedora Linux on the Microsoft
Windows Subsystem for Linux, in particular for Desktop interaction through the
WSLg subsystem, see
https://github.com/microsoft/wslg
It is not expected that users of Fedora Linux ever install this package (except
to rebuild the Mesa driver world).
So, given the above:
a) "tests" - the test is neither effective nor meaningful for Fedora Linux; I
fully understand the presence of "%meson -Dbuild-test=false"
b) the "-devel" part is a bit trickier - one could argue that this package is
only for "internal" builds of Fedora, it is not really a -devel package, but a
Fedora Linux product build enabling package, only meant for use by Fedora Linux
building Mesa?
I am willing to invest some time to make things happen, but these things should
be meaningful in the Big Picture.
In the end, once this package here exists, the Fedora Linux Mesa package build
configuration will be extended with "pkgconfig(DirectX-Header) >= ...", some
build options tweakage will take place, and that's almost certainly all there
will ever be.
Anything that gets Fedora to the above, I can spend some time on.
