Package: bumblebee
Version: 3.2.1-1~bpo70+1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation? Installed bumblebee from wheezy-backports
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)? try and start an application using optirun
   * What was the outcome of this action? returns with the following error:
     [  303.693310] [ERROR]No bridge found. Try installing primus or virtualgl.
   * What outcome did you expect instead? that optirun would launch the
     application.

The bumblebee package recommends virtualgl and primus however neither of these
are available in wheezy-backports.
