Well, I tried this

`
for LINE in `cat 21005xx0.packages.txt`
do
DEPS=`echo $LINE| rev | cut -f3 -d '-'| rpm -q --requires $LINE | grep -E 'i915_dri|i965_dri|nouveau_dri|nouveau_vieux_dri|r200_dri|r300_dri|r600_dri|radeon_dri|swrast_dri|mesa-dri-drivers'`
if [ "$DEPS" != "" ] ; then
 	echo "$LINE depends on $DEPS" >> mesa_dep.txt
fi
done
'

which gives:
"mesa-libGL-8.0.1-2.fc17.i686 depends on mesa-dri-drivers(x86-32) = 8.0.1-2.fc17
mesa-libGLES-8.0.1-2.fc17.i686 depends on mesa-dri-drivers(x86-32) = 8.0.1-2.fc17"
but but no package that actually depends on any of the included mesa-dri-drivers

grep'ing for 'libGL|libGLES|libglapi' shows that: 
"gnash-0.8.10-2.fc17.i686 depends on libGL.so.1  
gnome-session-3.3.92-2.fc17.i686 depends on libGL.so.1  
gtkglext-libs-1.2.0-16.fc17.i686 depends on libGL.so.1  
mesa-libGL-8.0.1-2.fc17.i686 depends on libglapi.so.0  
mesa-libGLES-8.0.1-2.fc17.i686 depends on libglapi.so.0  
mesa-libGLU-8.0.1-2.fc17.i686 depends on libGL.so.1  
squeak-vm-3.10.5-8.fc17.i686 depends on libGL.so.1  
webkitgtk-1.6.3-2.fc17.i686 depends on libGL.so.1  
webkitgtk3-1.7.92-1.fc17.i686 depends on libGL.so.1"

So libGL(ES) are sure needed but is not clear why mesa-libGL/mesa-libGLES pull mesa-dri-drivers (which then pulls mesa-dri-filesystem).

The thing about the git changelog I'm afraid I missed it. Which git are you referring to?
