+I had read your spec (rev 88231) and understood you planned to... and was
+happy to see this !
+
+I was aware of the problems of dependency (I posted on dev mailing list
+january 18th) hoping that an early option for freeglut would protect
+against these : building the depending packages with freeglut-devel might
+be more sane...
+but I had not in mind the necessary compatibility with Mandriva 2010.1 for
+an easy upgrade and the need of keeping mesaglut.
+
+The thread started by Ennael about deps after the arrival of freeglut.rpm
+made me think she was talking about already built rpms (such as hugin,
+enblend, libtiff etc...)
+I was wrong !
+
+
+&gt;<i>RH has switched to freeglut long ago.
+</I>
+And openSuse, Gentoo, Debian, Ubuntu too :
+
+Mandriva was the only distro still using GLUT and this lead to a cul-de-sac
+for sharing packages or specs... or even to develop some softs
+(I needed to modify some lines of source code to build with Mandriva
+something that was smooth for fedora or Debian users, who could not
+understand where the problem was for me. I spent some hours before
+understanding and finding some workaround to get in the end a soft with
+missing features : GLUT allowing less features than freeglut)
+
+
+
+I understand that compatibility with Mandriva makes necessary some bad
+inheritance... and double work for some packages that will have to be
+rebuilt and updated in the same time when freeglut is provided by
+default...
+
+Nevertheless it sounds very good for the future !
+
+Thanks again to all of you
+
+Philippe
