Remove ABI Tag
For some time libGL has included an OS ABI tag, to indicate that the library is
only usable on systems with TLS support (kernel 2.4.20 and above).
The problem is that this tag breaks ldconfig ordering of libGL. In my
deployment, I install libGL from Mesa, from nVidia, and from ATI,
simultaneously but under different paths. Adding the correct path to
/etc/ld.so.conf used to work very well.
However, with the current libGL, even when another libGL is specified with
priority, ldconfig will ignore it in favour of the Mesa GLX version, because of
the tag:
libGL.so.1 (libc6, OS ABI: Linux 2.4.20) => /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
libGL.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1
Seeing as 2.4 kernels are becoming increasingly rare, I am recommending
removing the tag, thus restoring correct ldconfig order going forward. Patch
attached.
