Hi Sebastian, rename was done to match the real shared object name to the package name: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglut.so.3.11.0 will go to libglut3.11.
At the moment source uploads are not necessary as libglut-dev provides freeglut3-dev. But after the transition yes, the batch of NMUs is planned. > why is there no transitional freeglut3-dev I thought it was enough that libglut-dev "provides" the freeglu3-dev. If not - I will add it.
