Package: nvidia-glx-dev
Version: 1.0.7667-2
Severity: important

Since nvidia-glx now handles the diversions of libGL, a clean upgrade
using aptitude is not possible. dpkg gives the following error-message:
dpkg-divert: `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so to 
/usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.xlibmesa by nvidia-glx' clashes with `diversion of 
/usr/lib/libGL.so to /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.xlibmesa by nvidia-glx-dev'

The problem cannot be fixed by purging nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-dev and
reinstalling them. Installing just nvidia-glx and purging nvidia-glx-dev
won't help, too. The only solution I could currently imagine is to
completely purge all nvidia/GL-packages and reinstall. Unfortunately I
don't have time to do this right now.

I cannot prove that this bug is reproduceable on other machines, so
feedback would be nice :)

Kind regards,
Patric Schenke
