Package: mesag3
Version: 5.0.0-5.1
Severity: important


because mesag3 requires the uninstallation of xlibmesa-gl and xlibmesa-gl-dev 
(and vice-versa), developing an app that depends on opengl and testing on a 
video card that does not support opengl is very tedious:

apt-get -y install xlibmesa-gl xlibmesa-gl-dev
make
apt-get -y install mesag3
../runthing
 
Rinse. Repeat.

Why is this the case? It seems like these could be installed
simultaniously.

Closing since Sarge won't get fixed anymore and Etch does not include
these package anymore. I am not sure Etch packages actually solve this
exact problem, but the remaining issues have been reported somewhere
else and should be fixed soon.
