[Package]: Add old gl4es+ fix patches

Open Mateus2022 opened this issue 1 year ago • 7 comments

Why is it worth to add this package?

More than two years ago, in the old x11-packages repository (archived), there was a gl4es package that, in termux, could be a wrapper for Android's gles/egl for gl 2.1, would you help to recover it in the new termux-packages and see if it fixes it? his critical errors?

gl4es appears to be poorly developed. In any case, why do you need this package?

it can be a good alternative to virgl because translating android gles/egl to gl 2.1 or the only problem is making it work on x11/android buffers

Sure, but I think angle can do this better? And still virgl have 2.1 OpenGL support (maybe by Angle)

VirGL is slow for low devices.
