Sure, here are 5 comments

1) Original tarball and diff directory names don't match...
Your orig tarball extracts to libQGLViewer-2.2.6-3 while the patch
expects libqglviewer-2.2.6-3 .

2) Patches should not be executable. Please "chmod a-x" all your patches.

3) Shouldn't you remove the dependency on libgl1-mesa-dev at all? I
think this is at the root of the dependency on an obsolete package:
xlibmesa-gl. Two Lintian warnings:
E: libqglviewer-qt4-2: depends-on-obsolete-package depends: xlibmesa-gl
E: libqglviewer-qt3-2: depends-on-obsolete-package depends: xlibmesa-gl

4) Is there really a need to keep the qt3 version in there?

5) Please consider renaming libqglviewer-qt4-2 to libqglviewer2. It
will make it easier to upgrade seamlessly and reduce propagation time
to debian archives. If you wanted to make it explicit that it's for
qt4, you may want to create a dummy package...

Cheers,

-Pascal
