Yep, of course.

Unfortunately I didn't save them. The only thing I noted was the commands
that I ran (as in the previous mail). I do remember that the first
--force-deps was needed because xlibmesa-gl{,u}{,-dev} didn't upgrade
cleanly from xlibmesa3-*, and I needed to explicitly remove xlibmesa3 so
that the next call to apt-get didn't complain about broken packages.
If there were some i386 packages I could probably try to replicate the
procedure and keep the apt output. I might build it from source this
weekend (I'm trying to set aside some time to do some Debian work then, so
hopefully I'll get to it).
