[solved] Nvidia libGL wants old libraries after upgrade

I've just upgraded my nvidia-libgl to 361.28-4, and nothing can start, since libGL.so depends on a couple of nvidia libs versioned 295.49. From readelf -d /usr/lib/libGL.so:

Dynamic section at offset 0xdd940 contains 27 entries:

None of the packages nvidia-libgl depends on includes these libraries. Any idea what's going on (someone on IRC suggested these old versions used to be used for hibernation)?

You updated nvidia-utils and installed libglvnd, right? Updated your entire system?

Thanks to Scimmia for solving this on IRC.

Anyone else coming by in the future - for some unknown reason I had an unowned copy of libGL.so.295.49 on my system that nvidia-libgl was symlinking to on installation. After deleting the old library and reinstalling nvidia-libgl, libGL.so correctly points to /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1.0.0.
