[Python-modules-team] Bug#509125: python-opengl: libgl1-mesa-dev should be required

[Örjan Ekeberg]

Package: python-opengl
Version: 3.0.0~b6-3
Severity: normal

python-opengl is depending on the symbolic link /usr/lib/libGL.so being
present to work. The library itself (/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2) is provided 
by the required libgl1-mesa-glx, but libgl1-mesa-dev is needed to get 
the /usr/lib/libGL.so link.

To test:
* Make sure libgl1-mesa-dev is not installed
* Start python
* Enter "import OpenGL.GL"
[this generates a backtrace due to the unfound GL sharable library]

Suggested fix:
Add libgl1-mesa-dev as a required dependency.
