mythtv: mtd + libGl.so.1.2 + nvidia = erk!

my myth transcoding daemon (mtd) is not starting due to the fact that libGl.so.1.2 is missing.

unfortunately trying to pacman -S libgl results in a conflict between libgl and nvidia-utils (:: libgl conflicts with nvidia-utils. Remove nvidia-utils? [Y/n] - err, no....)

has anyone come across this before and figured a way around it?

I've got this problem with the missing libGL, and for me it leaves mythgallery and mythmusic unresponsive. I moved to the testing version of nvidia-utils, but that forced me to the testing version of nvidia and the kernel, and everything broke. I downgraded to the extra versions of these packages and am still looking for a solution.

Can you try the testing versions of the mythtv packages? This should be resolved with them... but you may also have to upgrade to the testing qt and friends. In general, if you feel confident enabling testing and doing an -Syu you should be ok... I'll see when we can move those out to core and extra

Or, actually, you can probably just do a

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2

as a temporary solution, until the newer mythtv packages hit the current repos.
