Title:
  No more desktop effects since libdrm upgrade in Bionic

Status in libdrm package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hello.

  I upgraded my system on 2019-05-09 and since then desktop effects do not work anymore. It installed
  a new libdrm stack :

  $ grep -A 3 "2019-05-09 *08:53:53" /var/log/apt/history.log | tail -n 1 | awk -F "," '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){print $i}}' | grep -A1 libdrm

  I have an ATI Radeon that was working fine with KDE until then. I waited to see if someone had realized it before creating a bug report... It really is annoying : no more transparency, no
  more auto-hide of windows : my workflow is strongly impacted.
