Hi Thomi,

lp:glmark2 contains a backend for mir, but with the latest changes in
lp:mir, it now fails to build. Since we haven't yet stabilized our
headers/API, and to avoid flooding upstream with changes, I will create
lp:~mir-team/glmark2/mir and continue development there.  When we
stabilize I will push our changes upstream.

To configure for mir, you need:

./waf configure --with-flavors=mir-gl,mir-glesv2 --prefix=/usr

FYI, the packaging branch for glmark2 daily packages (x11 only):

https://code.launchpad.net/~glmark2-dev/glmark2/glmark2-package

Thanks,
Alexandros
