Update Information:

Some works towards getting a fresher wayland into Fedora:

* build wayland-0.85.0
* adjust mesa package so it provides everything needed for weston, the wayland reference compositor

I'll submit a weston package for review over the next few days.

Note, the wayland packages will replace older ones in f17 currently that contain a compositor, which the new ones are not; so this might look like a regression, but that wayland package is heavily outdated and the compositor does not work on f17 anyway.
