Bug Description

libglvnd packages (libglvnd0, libopengl0, libgl1, libegl1...) represent a major improvement over the previous packages which suffered from hard-to-debug conflicts between multiple vendors (e.g. Mesa/NVIDIA).

This would be useful for running containerized graphical applications based on ubuntu xenial:

As mentioned in the bug above, the backport exists for debian stretch:
