What does dpkg -S /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so show on your
system, and what version of the listed package do you have installed?

I don't know of any bugs in the diversions of the current version of the
nvidia packages; adding conflicts/depends because of buggy older versions of
packages is sometimes done, but not required, so I'm downgrading this bug in
any case.
