Oops, I just remembered that I can just look on my other gentoo server
to find where gl is.... and this brings up a new problem!
gl.pc is located in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gl.pc
equery belongs tells me that it belongs to mesa.
BUT, xorg-server-1.7.3.901-r1 has mesa as a PDEPEND, and mesa-7.7 has
xorg-server as a RDEPEND, which is included in DEPEND, so how the heck
am I supposed to get X working on my laptop?
