pacman -syu failed libgl conflict

Tried to do pacman -Syu, had conflicts with nvidia and libgl:
xf86-video-ati: requires libgl>=7.2
:: xf86-video-mga: requires libgl>=7.2
:: xf86-video-savage: requires libgl>=7.2
:: xf86-video-sis: requires libgl>=7.2
:: xf86-video-tdfx: requires libgl>=7.2
so I removed these and then did a syu for nvidia-96xx and nvidia-96xx-utils
now when I try pacman -Syu I get
:: Starting full system upgrade...

Re: pacman -syu failed libgl conflict

If you're not using the five video drivers (xf86-video-*) causing the errors, remove them first.
