Hello friend here 🙂 Using Distrobox -doesn't that mean we'd have to install everything else that we need? (games etc..) It's for debugging the latest mesa source.

ugh well I was hoping to avoid all the extra steps. I know that you guys don't recommend rpm-ostree so I'm guessing any documentation concerning updating mesa drivers using this is non existent.

you can try overriding it, i dont guarantee anything tho maybe custom image is a bit better
