Agreed (or make Mesa-libGL-devel, as you suggest below, but that gets even
more convoluted).
- I still say the libGL devel stuff and libGLU should be split from
xorg-x11-devel.
You keep saying that. But, why? There is no other/alternative GL
implementation in Core or Extras (Nvidia's doesn't/shouldn't count in
this discussion).
On the other hand, I thought one of Mike's original motivations for
splitting off Mesa-GL was to allow for drop-in replacements. I'm not sure
if there is value anymore in packaging these separately.
