freeglut and AUR mesa-full conflict

Hi All,

Every time I do an upgrade I strick this conflict which affects the upgrade of ghostscript and jasper. My method of handling it is to ignore the freeglut package
during the upgrade and therefore not allowing the upgrade of ghostscript and jasper.

Is there a way of removing this conflict. It seems mesa-full has built in glut support, so how do I get to upgrade ghostscript and jasper?

Cheers,
Bernie

   The provides= line is outdated: it should also mention that it provides freeglut. Indeed, other packages like jasper are now requiring freeglut, not glut. So add "freeglut=${_realver}".

so just edit PKGBUILD, change, save, build package.
BTW You may also need to add glew into provides array
