[Lunar-commits] <moonbase> NVIDIA(beta): remove outdated GL header files. This patch removes all GL headers which were installed by Nvidia to protect users against the junk they contain. Since new driver release Nvidia stops including any include files. When I analyzed the content of Nvidia GL headers I realized this is old crap. The most ugly was gl.h - it was designed exclusively for M$ Windows not Linux!

good catch, we should have never installed these to begin with...

perhaps someone wants to audit fglrx?
