I have pushed a fix for the problem.  However, it seems there will
likely be trouble if the glx-diversions package is installed:

- glx-diversions diverts (among others) libGL.so.1.2, but the library is
  now named libGL.so.1.2.0 instead.

- libGL.so used to point to libGL.so.1 (that's why the bug does not
  appear in mesa versions uploaded to the archive), but now points to
  libGL.so.1.2.0.

I haven't tested it yet, but it seems quite possible that the libGL.so
symlink might become dangling.

Cheers,
