Well, the issue for us is that with two upstream sources, the respective Mesa and XFree86 origins need to provide the same things. Is a version of Mesa coming out soon that provides all four of these libraries? (libGL + libGLU + libOSMesa + libGlw) As I understand it, the currently released version of Mesa doesn't provide libOSMesa. Only one Debian package can provide these things at a time. What we do is have a virtual package called "libgl1" which both the mesag3 and xlibgl1 packages (will) provide. If we need make these provisions more specific it would be good to know. :) -- G.
