Hi Zhe,

  Glad to hear that deleting the OSMesa included in ChimeraX makes the --offscreen option work for generating images for EMDB.  Greg has fixed the CentOS 8 ChimeraX build so it does not include OSMesa and just uses the system version so you will not need to delete it in future releases.

The libOSMesa library is only used for a very obscure ChimeraX capability, offscreen rendering when Chimera is started with the "--offscreen" flag usually for servers creating images.  Do you need that?
