Hi,

Thanks for reviewing, I've reviewed your patch and I'll apply it. Especially
thanks for catching the lack of exclusive arch since Glide itself is
exclusivearch that will safe me one failed build attempt :)

About the wrapper script versus libgl replacement. The old voodoo cards for
which this version of Mesa is are 3d addon cards which work next to a 2d card
and as such are fullscreen only, that is somewhere between kinda bad and real
bad for some applications, hence the wrapper approach, so that the user can
choose between slow but window capable 3d and "fast" and fullscreen 3d.

About the name I'm all for a better name. Glide3-Mesa-libGL sounds better then
what I came up with.

I made my name start with Glide3 because its a special version of Mesa for Glide
and thus kindoff a subpackage, but the base/source of the package is Mesa, so
you could argue that making the name of the package start with Glide3 is wrong.

So is my package approved with you patch + name change? And/or do you know a
better name?
