Package: mesa Version: 8.0.3-1 Severity: important Dear X devs,would it be possible to somehow bind libgl1-mesa-glx more strongly to recent versions of libgl1-mesa-dri in order to avoid the problems that such partial upgrades cause, e.g. as described in #676942 (see below)?
Currently, libgl1-mesa-dri has "Recommends: libgl1-mesa-dri (>= 7.2)" and "Conflicts: libgl1, libgl1-mesa-dri (<< 6.4.0)". Since versioned Recommends are moot, maybe this should get replaced with "Recommends: libgl1-mesa-dri" and "Conflicts: libgl1, libgl1-mesa-dri (<< 8.0.0)".

After upgrading libgl1-mesa-dri from 7.11.2-1 to 8.0.3-1, the framerate now seems to be ok again. Kind regards, --Toni++
