At the same time, every time I do an upgrade I have to "apt-get -f
install" which removes my libglide-v3.  I then have to download the deb
myself and dpkg -i --force-depends it.  It is fairly annoying.  I would
rather the package not require anything, or if dev3dfx-source (name?)
provided dev3dfx-module.
