[Mesa-dev] mesa 20.0.0-devel fails to build

[Daniel Schürmann]

The repository of mesa-aco-git is 
https://github.com/daniel-schuermann/mesa .
In case, this issue cannot be reproduced upstream, please open a bug 
request there.
Otherwise, I'd appreciate if you could open a bug report at the upstream 
gitlab.
(Although, I highly doubt it is an issue in mesa, but rather some 
incompatible package in Arch.)

Please make sure to provide sufficient details to reproduce the issue:
- system information, build options and the complete error message

Kind regards,
Daniel
