+Just a question ...
+what would happen if freeglut has a provides glut ?
+If neither were installed, wouldn't one be given the option ? (as long as both are available in the 
+repos) (as one sees often enough when installing packages)
+And if both glut and freeglut were installed, and glut were subsequently uninstalled, would 
+packages requiring glut continue to work ?
