Mesa builds are temporarily suspended due to a broken llvm-toolchain-10 package, inherited from Debian. Once this will be fixed, I'll re-enable the builds.

Temporarily reverted to llvm9, until llvm10 will get a fix.

PPA for 19.04 (disco) is obsoleted (it is End of Life since January). Packages will be removed from the PPA in the next days. If you are still using it purge the PPA, upgrade to 19.10 (eoan) and add again the PPA.

This explains certain issues in performance. Is there a way to revert drivers back to a certain date? For example, say I wanted to install the PPA drivers (for INTEL) from the first week of March 2020 for BIONIC. Is there a mechanism to do that?
