Not too bad, methinks.

No, as has been discussed here, it's still mesag3 for hysterical
reasons. We have to set a good example. :)

I like libgl1-xfree86 better because the emphasis is on libgl1.

OTOH xlibmesa-gl(1) have the advantage that xlibmesa-gl-dev can stay the
same, allowing for a smoother transition.

Also, is there a naming scheme yet for the other libraries to be split
out of xlibs, which might be applicable here?
