I observed the same problem also with Scilab under Ubuntu 14.04, with the following version of libjogl2-java:
libjogl2-java/trusty,now 2.1.5-1ubuntu3 all [installed,automatic] libjogl2-jni/trusty,now 2.1.5-1ubuntu3 amd64 [installed] Is there a fix available for Ubuntu Trusty? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1742894 Title: Scilab does not start after some upgrades on Ubuntu Xenial Status in Mesa: Confirmed Status in libjogl2-java package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in scilab package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libjogl2-java source package in Xenial: Fix Released Status in mesa source package in Xenial: Invalid Status in scilab source package in Xenial: Invalid Status in libjogl2-java source package in Artful: Fix Released Status in mesa source package in Artful: Invalid Status in scilab source package in Artful: Invalid Status in scilab package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] Software that use libjogl2-java (Scilab, Matlab,...) fail to run, because Mesa dropped 'Gallium' from the renderer string. [Test case] Steps to reproduce: 1. have installed Scilab on Ubuntu Xenial system 2. install system updates 3. try to launch Scilab from GUI - it does not start 4. try to launch Scilab from terminal - it does not start with the following output in the terminal: $ scilab Could not create a Scilab main class.

Check if the Scilab and thirdparty packages are available). Expected results: Scilab works normally on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS system. Actual results: see error above. [Regression potential] The fix is a simple oneliner that allows libjogl2-java to detect Mesa with both new and original version of Mesa.
