driver loader issue, failing to run glxinfo

Description:

When I want to run Sigil (or Calibre E-book Viewer or Calibre E-book Editor) it doesn't start (only is showed the title bar). For example, when I run Sigil from command line, I get the following output:

MESA-LOADER: failed to open zink: /usr/lib/dri/zink_dri.so: undefined symbol: amdgpu_va_get_start_addr (search paths /usr/lib/dri, suffix _dri)
failed to load driver: zink
MESA-LOADER: failed to open swrast: /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so: undefined symbol: amdgpu_va_get_start_addr (search paths /usr/lib/dri, suffix _dri)
failed to load driver: swrast

Also it gives me error the following command:

MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink glxinfo | grep 'renderer string'

The output is:

MESA-LOADER: failed to open zink: /usr/lib/dri/zink_dri.so: undefined symbol: amdgpu_va_get_start_addr (search paths /usr/lib/dri, suffix _dri)
failed to load driver: zink

Additional info:

I have to downgrade from mesa 1:24.0.2-2 to 1:23.3.5-1 in order to run Sigil (or Calibre E-book Viewer or Calibre E-book Editor). And things are even worst because now I also have to downgrade llvm-libs from 17.0.6-2 to 16.0.6-1 version.

I have linux lts 6.6.21-1 and I use Xorg.

Steps to reproduce:

Just to run "sigil" from command line or MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink glxinfo | grep 'renderer string'
