+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] [kwinglutils] Init glVersion on gles
+
+The glVersion was not set at all for gles causing any code doing a
+hasGLVersion check to fail which means that the compositor doesn't
+start at all, because it has a hasGLVersion(2, 0) check.
+
+The complete ifdef is no longer needed. The used additional glGetStringi
+is also available in gles 3.0, thus epoxy can handle it quite well
+without a need for ifdef.
+
+Unfortunately the version string can be "strange" on GLES. On desktop
+it looks like: "3.0 some driver foo", on GLES it could also be:
+"OpenGL ES 3.0 some driver bar". Thus to make the logic work we are
+first removing any leading "OpenGL ES " and hope that then the version
+is encoded just like on GL.
