(new) glx-alternative-fglrx_0.0.0_i386.deb optional contrib/libs
allows the selection of FGLRX as GLX provider
 In setups with several GLX providers (e.g. the free MESA implementation and
 proprietary graphics hardware vendor implementations) this metapackage
 allows one to switch to the non-free FGLRX driver and libraries.
 .
 Use 'update-alternatives --config glx' to select an implementation.
 .
 This package does not depend on the corresponding FGLRX libraries.
 In order to install the FGLRX driver and libraries, install the fglrx-glx and
 fglrx-driver packages instead.
(new) glx-alternative-mesa_0.0.0_i386.deb optional contrib/libs
allows the selection of MESA as GLX provider
 In setups with several GLX providers (e.g. the free MESA implementation and
 proprietary graphics hardware vendor implementations) this metapackage
 allows one to switch back to MESA.
 .
 Use 'update-alternatives --config glx' to select an implementation.
 .
 This package does not depend on the corresponding MESA libraries.
 In order to install the MESA libraries, install the libgl1-mesa-glx package
 instead.
(new) glx-alternative-nvidia_0.0.0_i386.deb optional contrib/libs
allows the selection of NVIDIA as GLX provider
 In setups with several GLX providers (e.g. the free MESA implementation and
 proprietary graphics hardware vendor implementations) this metapackage
 allows one to switch to the non-free NVIDIA driver and libraries.
 .
 Use 'update-alternatives --config glx' to select an implementation.
 .
 This package does not depend on the corresponding NVIDIA libraries.
 In order to install the NVIDIA driver and libraries, install the nvidia-glx
 package instead.
(new) glx-alternatives_0.0.0.dsc optional contrib/libs
(new) glx-alternatives_0.0.0.tar.gz optional contrib/libs
(new) libgl1-diversions_0.0.0_i386.deb optional contrib/libs
simplifies replacing MESA libGL with GPU vendor libraries
 Diverts the free libGL.so implementation (MESA) and introduces
 alternatives to simplify plugging in accelerated implementations from GPU
 vendors.  Handles both libGL.so.1 and libGL.so.
(new) libglx-diversions_0.0.0_i386.deb optional contrib/libs
simplifies replacing Xorg module libglx.so with GPU vendor library
 Diverts the free Xorg module libglx.so (Xorg) and introduces alternatives
 to simplify plugging in accelerated implementations from GPU vendors.
 Handles both libglx.so and its debug symbols.
Changes: glx-alternatives (0.0.0) experimental; urgency=low
 .
  * Initial release, upload to experimental.
  * Split glx alternatives handling from nvidia-graphics-drivers to this new
    source package: glx-alternatives, put into contrib.
    - libgl1-nvidia-alternatives -> libgl1-diversions
    - libglx-nvidia-alternatives -> libglx-diversions
  * Put the diverted files into /usr/lib/mesa-diverted[/<triplet>].
  * Divert /usr/lib/<triplet>/libGL.so*, too.
  * Add packages glx-alternative-{mesa,nvidia,fglrx} which register an
    alternative 'glx' that uses the vendor specific libraries.
  * glx-alternative-fglrx is not yet implemented in this experimental upload.
