Hi,

For the record, this entails lots of rebuilds, contrary to what one
might think:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ./pre-inst-env guix refresh -l -e '(force (@@ (gnu packages gl) libva-without-mesa))' 
Building the following 1478 packages would ensure 2711 dependent packages are rebuilt: […]
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I suppose this could go to ‘core-updates’.

Alternatively, we could keep ‘libva-without-mesa’ at its current version
and only upgrade ‘libva’; that could be done on master.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
