Giving good karma now since its already fixed on RPMFusion's end. I have installed the freeworld va driver packages locally and am using this build of mesa. We just need to wait for those freeworld packages to propagate to all mirrors. Thanks again Jose!
As there has been an official reply from mesa dev too, I assume that the patches aren't getting pulled from here. I will proceed to create a bugzilla in RPMFusion to prompt a rebuild with these patches.
@jexposit The build is fine actually. The error happens because I assume that mesa-va-drivers-freeworld from RPMFusion doesn't carry the patch and there is a mismatch between how the two handle stuff. If I uninstall mesa-va-drivers-freeworld or use mesa-va-drivers from Fedora's repos. I can open Spectacle fine but with no VAAPI.
@jexposit one thing i forgot to mention is that this issue doesn't happen for me on mesa-git. For posterity this is the mesa-git build i used that had no issues.
P.S. The log I shared is actually someone from the Nobara community and not mine. However, I can also reproduce it with my integrated AMD graphics (Radeon 660M from a Ryzen 5 6600HS)
It looks like you have already mentioned the issue in the related issue pages and MRs. I will chime in there when there is more development on the issue. Thanks
Yes, I have downgraded to 24.1.2-2.fc40 and everything works as intended.
