Not sure if this helps:

That way you might get the names of the packages. Then you look into 
package details like this:

Description-en: free implementation of the OpenGL API -- GLX runtime
  This version of Mesa provides GLX and DRI capabilities: it is capable of
  both direct and indirect rendering.  For direct rendering, it can use DRI
  modules from the libgl1-mesa-dri package to accelerate drawing.
  .
  This package does not include the modules themselves: these can be found
  in the libgl1-mesa-dri package.
  .
  For a complete description of Mesa, please look at the
  libgl1-mesa-swx11 package.
