Building Bleeding-Edge Mesa RPMs on Fedora

This guide walks you through building and installing the latest development version of Mesa on Fedora using mock to generate proper RPM packages. I've been using this method since December 2025 and have perfected it along the way. I'm very satisfied with the results. Make sure to put the script itself and the .spec file in a folder and run the script.

MAKE SURE YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND THE SCRIPT, NEVER RUN SOMETHING OFF THE INTERNET WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING THE CONTENT. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR SYSTEM

Who is this guide for? This guide is written for all experience levels, including beginners. Each step includes explanations of what and why, so you can learn as you go.

On systems with UEFI Secure Boot enabled, recent Linux kernels will only load signed modules, so it's about time DKMS grew the capability to sign modules it's building.

These scripts are extended and scriptified variants of https://computerlinguist.org/make-dkms-sign-kernel-modules-for-secure-boot-on-ubuntu-1604.html and https://askubuntu.com/questions/760671/could-not-load-vboxdrv-after-upgrade-to-ubuntu-16-04-and-i-want-to-keep-secur/768310#768310 and add some error checking, a passphrase around your signing key, and support for compressed modules.

dkms-sign-module is a wrapper for the more generic sign-modules which can also be used outside of DKMS.

Installation

1. Create a directory under /root, say /root/module-signing, put the three scripts below in there and make them executable: chmod u+x one-time-setup sign-modules dkms-sign-module

Creating a neural spike plot in ggplotnim

NOTE: once PR #59 is merged, the two examples below will be part of the recipes. Currently here: https://github.com/Vindaar/ggplotnim/blob/arraymancerBackend/recipes.org#creating-a-neural-spike-plot-in-ggplotnim

I’m not sure if this is what you had in mind, but I googled and found this:
