I don't think that is the case. That ATI part does not support the OpenGL functionality in question at all whether through the NV or ARB extension. No properly functioning ATI driver would have that
extension in it.i am pretty sure that the gfx-card on the autobuild machine does NOT support the nvidia extensions (natively). however, i am also pretty sure, that these machiens are using the
mesaGL implementation which (being a software renderer) can provide pretty
any extension (it knows about). it would provide the nvidia-extensions (in software, like everything else) even for an old vesa card or whatever.so configure correctly detects that glDeleteProgramsNV() is
supported on the autobuild machine. period.now, why is it not supported on some machines? probably because of
older versions of mesaGL which do not yet support the nvidia-extensions.
This is what is on the Ubuntu machine in the auto-build farm that
compiled the Ubuntu build that started this thread:
ii libgl1-mesa 6.4.1-0ubuntu8 A free implementation of the
OpenGL
ii libgl1-mesa-dev 6.4.1-0ubuntu8 A free implementation of the
OpenGL
ii libgl1-mesa-dri 6.4.1-0ubuntu8 A free implementation of the
OpenGL

ii mesa-utils 6.3.2-0ubuntu6 Miscellaneous Mesa GL utilities
This is what is on the Ubuntu machine that had the problem running it:

So you are saying that they removed NV compatibility from in mesa
when going from 6.4 to 6.5?
