+ [Impact]
+ Mesa in zesty has dropped libgles1-mesa, slightly ahead of upstream. 
Backporting mesa to xenial & yakkety requires packages that depend on it to 
stop doing that.
+ 
+ Nothing really should depend on OpenGL ES v1 (GLESv1), which was meant
+ for fixed-function GPU's, and we don't support those anyway. For a
+ reference, Fedora never enabled support for it in Mesa.
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ Check that vlc / libopentk1.1-cil are installable together with Mesa 17.0.x
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ GLESv1 is not needed by anything really, so there shouldn't be a risk of 
regressing any use case.
