Mesa 22.0 Released With Vulkan 1.3, Many Open-Source Intel & AMD Driver Improvements
You can already test it with Debian PowerPC (PPC32) and with MintPPC.
Instructions:
Please add the Debian experimental repo to the file /etc/apt/sources.list:
After that, you can install the new Mesa 22.0 with the following commands:
Be carefull with upgrading Debian PowerPC/PPC64 packages because it could be that some things don't work anymore after the upgrade.
I tested this Mesa upgrade today and it works.
apt show libgl1-mesa-dri -a

Description: free implementation of the OpenGL API -- DRI modules
This version of Mesa provides GLX and DRI capabilities: it is capable of
both direct and indirect rendering. For direct rendering, it can use DRI
modules from the libgl1-mesa-dri package to accelerate drawing.
.
This package does not include the OpenGL library itself, only the DRI
modules for accelerating direct rendering.
