There is no generic solution for this. In your case I'd suggest a dummy mesalib package, that redirects the dependency to your OpenGL package: A makefile with just "PACKAGES-$(PTXCONF_MESALIB) += mesalib" and an in-file that selects your package. However, this won't generate any ipkg dependencies. A solution for this is on the todo list, but so far not implemented.
