Package: xlibmesa-gl-dev Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Severity: normal Followup-For: Bug #246590
I am getting a similar problem installing this package. dpkg -x ... / works fine, so I tried extracting the package into /tmp and created a tgz - I then aliened that package into a deb. Strangely enough the install fails with the same error. [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/xlibmesa-gl-dev_4.3.0.dfsg.1-1_i386/usr/X11R6/include/GL> sudo cp glx.h /usr/X11R6/include/GL/ -- that much works...
