Public bug reported:
The GLFW library exists in two versions: 2.7.8 and 3.1.2. Those two
versions can be installed in parallel... but for the libglfw3-dev
conflicting with libglfw-dev (which should be named libglfw2-dev).
There is no file conflict: GLFW 2.x uses /usr/include/GL/glfw.h, while
GLFW 3.x uses /usr/include/glfw3.h
Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
libglfw3-dev 3.1.2-3
What I expected:
* libglfw-dev and libglfw3-dev can be installed together
What happened instead:
* selecting libglfw3-dev after libglfw-dev is checked unchecks libglfw-dev
* selecting libglfw-dev after libglfw3-dev is checked marks libglfw3-dev as
invalid
