Guarddog depends on xlibmesa-gl | libgl1, IIRC xlibmesa-gl1-dri-mach64
provides xlibmesa3-gl and maybe xlibmesa4-gl but not xlibmesa-gl (I
changed that so I am not sure what the original package said)

As for qt (I thing its the dev, right) IIRC it depends on
xlibmesa-gl-dev which depends on a specific version of xlibmesa-gl
which is removed. Forcing this does work ok since the replacement
library does provide all the hooks, I just hacked the packages though
(also upgraded to cvs version, which should be upgraded again ;-)
