I propose a change to the nvidia-utils that is as follows:

1. Move all libs to /usr/lib/nvidia 2. Create nvidia-utils-helper package that only adds a /etc/ld.so.conf.d/nvidia file containing "/usr/lib/nvidia" 3. make nvidia-utils depend on nvidia-utils-helper

1. package nvidia-utils without libGL.so and libGL.so.1 symlinks 2. package nvidia-libgl with these symlinks. 3. the package bumblebee could provide a /usr/lib/bumblebee that provide libGL.so and libGL.so. symlinks and conflicts with nvidia-libgl

Shouldn't libglx.so go into that package as well? But then it wouldn't be correct to call it nvidia-libgl anymore. I like the symlink idea.
