I noticed you held back the Mesa 25.1.x update

I noticed you held back the Mesa 25.1.x update and are still using 25.0.5

Is it because of the bugs/problems the new update is causing?

I’m asking because the new update caused me a lot of problems with EOS and when I tried Manjaro it worked because you are still using the old version.

Welcome to the forum! :vulcan_salute:

We do already have mesa 25.1.3-3 in both the Testing and Unstable branches, which — or so I’ve been told — contains the fix, but yes, there have been some problems with mesa for people with AMD GPUs, and generally, that sort of thing does then indeed lead to the package — whichever package it concerns — being held back from entering the Stable branch until the issue has been remedied upstream.

Manjaro is after all a curated rolling-release distribution. :wink:


Hint: As a new member, you may want to subscribe to notifications for the Stable Updates category. Every bundled update, whether it’s for Manjaro Testing or Manjaro Stable, always comes accompanied by a dedicated announcement thread.

  • The first post of the thread contains the changes with regard to the previous bundled update.

  • The second post of the thread details the potential problems, and how to deal with them.

  • The announcement thread also always contains a poll (in the first post), and a summary of past issues (in the second post), for those who’ve skipped an update — which is not advised with a rolling-release distribution, but it does happen. :wink:
