Briefly, there can be several implementations of libGL.so.1 - NVidia or 
Mesa. So, there's a mess with runtime-generated links, which are created 
by ogl-select service on boot. Package usually should avoid generating 
dependencies on libGL.so.1 and just insert dependency on 
service/opengl/ogl-select (look, for example, on 
components/x11/xorg-server/xorg.p5m.
