That is probably the missing bit. I've never tested what happens to the alternatives if these packages are installed manually on a non-nvidia system. At least installation will succeed without error and removal will restore the previous state, but there might be some trigger missing to set up the alternatives (which is usually activated by the nvidia driver packages). Downgrading the severity while I think about it. Maybe we should have some autopkgtests to ensure the libgl.so.1 symlink does not disappear. Andreas
