Debian Unstable
I just recenlty got these errors with my last update two weeks ago.
Basicly I installed the Radeon drivers by hand since there is no Debian
package for them. Now some OpenGL programs are complaining that mesa or
the meta package libgl1 is not installed and I can't install anything
until it is fixed. There should be a way to install a fake package
without having to create my own and errors like this should simply be a
warning as the OpenGL subsystem is hardly critical to the operation of a
Debian workstation. Not being able to even upgrade secrity patches is
bad. Here is th output of apt-get upgrade:
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
3ddesktop: Depends: xlibmesa3 but it is not installed or
libgl1
blender: Depends: xlibmesa3-gl but it is not installed or
libgl1
bzflag: Depends: xlibmesa3 but it is not installed or
libgl1
csmash: Depends: xlibmesa3 but it is not installed or
libgl1
flightgear: Depends: xlibmesa3 but it is not installed or
libgl1
libglut3: Depends: xlibmesa3-gl but it is not installed or
libgl1
libsdl-perl: Depends: xlibmesa3-gl but it is not installed or

libwine: Depends: xlibmesa3 but it is not installed or

libwxgtk2.3: Depends: libgl1
pia: Depends: xlibmesa3 but it is not installed or

plib1: Depends: libgl1
x-window-system-core: Depends: xlibmesa3-gl but it is not installed
xawtv: Depends: xlibmesa3 but it is not installed or
libgl1
xbase-clients: Depends: xlibmesa3-gl but it is not installed or

E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

apt cannot know about dependencies which are satisfied outside of the
packaging system. This is what equivs are for.
