It looks like this was released on November 17th

I suggested at the time you added gmmlib-intel-gmmlib and media-driver-intel-media that you might find the updates too frequent. I believe you are taking development releases which is not the normal scenario for LFS/BLFS.

The way I do it is to upgrade only when media-driver-intel-media is identified as a quarterly release. The current one is 23.3.5. They are in the Releases stream as opposed to the Tags stream. That release will identify the gmmlib-intel-gmmlib and libva versions that it is intended to be used with and that is when I take the gmmlib and media-driver.

Replying to martyj19:

Good point. I suppose the easiest way to handle the currency for intel-gmmlib is to designate it as "manual". If everyone agrees, than I can do that easily enough.

I don't think this is the right approach. New versions add support for other hardware and fix bugs in things such as AV1 encoding/decoding being all green in the output. This package gets updated maybe once or twice a month. This ticket exists because 22.3.14 was released about a day after .13 and we missed it because we didn't check for another version before we did the update

Intel-gmmlib is updated far less than media-driver, this is probably the third release this year

On the other hand, dropping back down to quarterly might be the right play, as long as there aren't any known issues like with video encoding/decoding, it should be OK. We should make sure to update before the February and September releases though :)

I'm in favor of dropping back down to released versions

Builds fine and intel-media builds just as well
