You've found a bug.
There is a conflict between the packages xlibmesa3 and xlibmesa3-glu.
If both are Debian packages, and not from a third-party site:
- Run 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade' and see if the problem is
fixed.
- Run 'apt-get install reportbug', then 'querybts xlibmesa3' and see
if the bug has been reported.
- If you've still got a problem, file a grave bug against one or the
other indicating the conflicting file. Paste the section above
starting from 'Unpacking replacement xlibmesa3'.
Peace.
