In general, precompiled Mesa libraries are not available.

-However, some Linux distros (such as Ubuntu) seem to closely track
-Mesa and often have the latest Mesa release available as an update.
+Some Linux distributions closely follow the latest Mesa releases. On others one
+has to use unofficial channels.
+<br>
+There are some general directions:
+<li>Debian/Ubuntu based distros - PPA: xorg-edgers, oibaf and padoka</li>
+<li>Fedora - Corp: erp and che</li>
+<li>OpenSuse/SLES - OBS: X11:XOrg and pontostroy:X11</li>
+<li>Gentoo/Archlinux - officially provided/supported</li>
