KDE Snaps are broken, sorry lights out for now

Wednesday, 19 February 2025 | Scarlett Gately Moore

All core22 KDE snaps are broken. There is not an easy fix. We have used kde-neon repos since inception and haven’t had issues until now.

libEGL fatal: DRI driver not from this Mesa build (‘23.2.1-1ubuntu3.1~22.04.3’ vs ‘23.2.1-1ubuntu3.1~22.04.2’)

Apparently Jammy had a mesa update?

Option 1: Rebuild our entire stack without neon repos ( fails due to dependencies not in Jammy, would require tracking down all of these and build from source )

Option 2: Finish the transition to core24 ( This is an enormous task and will take some time still )

Either option will take more time and effort than I have. I need to be job hunting as I have run out of resources to pay my bills. My internet/phone will be cut off in days. I am beyond stressed out and getting snippy with folks, for that I apologize. If someone wants to sponsor the above work then please donate to https://gofund.me/fe30793b otherwise I am stepping away to rethink life and my defunct career.

I am truly sorry everyone.

New core24 Snaps:

Arianna – Epub viewer

k3b – Disc burner
