Feature Request

I confirm:

  • [x] that I haven't found another request for this feature.
  • [x] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available that
    contain this feature already.

Description

Heads up on the Mesa cache variables being renamed.

Justification [optional]

Just wanted to know if you guys were aware since the initial MR just disabled the current vars completely with no deprecation phase. Fortunately a contributor reminded the dev that maybe a dry removal was a bit too brutal.

Risks [optional]

Averted for now but could have impeded Proton runtime architecture?

Hello @DistantThunder, there is no functional impact until the deprecated environment variable is removed. (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/15390#note_1299782)

Closing as not a Proton issue.
