[pkg-nvidia-devel] Bug#594298: libgl1-nvidia-alternatives: alternatives are very strange and probably not correct

[Norbert Preining]

Package: libgl1-nvidia-alternatives
Version: 195.36.31-2
Severity: important

One more bug report: Upon installation the alternatives seem to be
wrong:

/usr/lib/libGL.so -> /etc/alternatives/libGL.so
	good

/usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> /etc/alternatives/libGL.so.1
	good

/etc/alternatives/libGL.so -> /usr/lib/nvidia/diversions/libGL.so
/usr/lib/nvidia/diversions/libGL.so -> libGL.so.1
/usr/lib/nvidia/diversions/libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.2
	that seems to be MESA

/etc/alternatives/libGL.so.1 -> /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1
/usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.195.36.31
	that seems to be NVIDIA


Should that work???
