Package: nvidia-glx-dev Version: 1.0.8776-1 There are a few minor bugs that should be cleaned up in the debian packaging scripts for nvidia. 1) nvidia-glx-dev.links and nvidia-glx-dev.links.in create malformed links because a # exists before the link name in the links file. Also, the second

Actually, this is what it looks like when I try to reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx (the nvidia-glx diversions cause this package to create a broken link in /usr/lib/nvidia). -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 425320 2006-10-13 03:55 libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2006-11-14 20:06
