The current version of this package in sid is 7.10.3-1, and there is no earlier version accessible in the repository. To compound this problem, libgl1-nvidia-glx does not provide libgl1, so libgl1-mesa-glx cannot be removed in favour of libgl1-nvidia-glx for non-free nvidia driver users.

Thanks for the response. I've just spent the last half hour or so
trying to get xorg to load with 260.x.x nvidia driver and newer
libgl1-mesa-glx installed, and discovered the new location of the
libGL.so.1 symlink. Thanks.

Will libgl1-nvidia-glx be made to provide libgl1? I read on the
nvidia-glx bugs that there is an argument against it.
