You are correct that there is a glam2 package.  I was told (and never
checked myself!) that the glam code is not maintained separately any
more but inside the meme source tree.  That is actually the reason to
split up the glam binary into a separate binary package to provide a
reasonable upgrade path for glam users.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
