Hi everyone,
I am running Linux Mint 22.3 XFCE edition and I am experiencing exactly the same problem described in this thread.
The problem started after a system upgrade. Luckily, I had an almost identical copy of my development environment running in a virtual machine, so I started upgrading one package at a time until I identified the package causing the issue.
The meta package name shown in the Update Manager is "mesa"
The affected packages are the ones listed in the screenshots:
• libegl-mesa0
• libgbm1
• libgl1-mesa-dri
• libglx-mesa0
• mesa-libgallium
• mesa-va-drivers
• mesa-vdpau-drivers
• mesa-vulkan-drivers
In my specific case, the issue was triggered when upgrading from version 25.0.7 to 25.2.8.
I then tried to downgrade these packages back to version 25.0.7 but it seems that version was removed from the repository; the only version available was 24.0.5.
You can check the available package versions in the repository using:
apt-cache policy <package-name>cesare@cesare-vbox:~/issue$ apt-cache policy libgbm1
libgbm1:
Installed: 24.0.5-1ubuntu1
Candidate: 25.2.8-0ubuntu0.24.04.1
Version table:
25.2.8-0ubuntu0.24.04.1 500

*** 24.0.5-1ubuntu1 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu noble/main amd64 Packages

After multiple attempts, I was able to fix the issue by downgrading the offending packages to version 24.0.5:
sudo apt install libegl-mesa0=24.0.5-1ubuntu1 libgbm1=24.0.5-1ubuntu1 libgl1-mesa-dri=24.0.5-1ubuntu1 libglx-mesa0=24.0.5-1ubuntu1 libglapi-mesa=24.0.5-1ubuntu1 mesa-va-drivers=24.0.5-1ubuntu1 mesa-vdpau-drivers=24.0.5-1ubuntu1 mesa-vulkan-drivers=24.0.5-1ubuntu1

I hope this helps the STM team identify the root cause.
