[OE-core] [PATCH 0/1] Solving the GTK+ libgl runtime dependency issue

[Jussi Kukkonen]

Recap of the situation as I understand it:
* Gtk+3 works fine without any OpenGL, if GtkGLArea is not used
* When GtkGLArea is used, Gtk+ uses libepoxy which is supposed
  dlopen the correct libraries as they are needed
* Gtk+ can only handle desktop GL at the moment (GdkGLContext
  does not have a GLES profile), so epoxy ends up dlopening
  libGL.so.1

With this in mind I think the right solution is that applications that
use OpenGL in a GtkGLArea must depend on a gl implementation (currently
only libgl works).

I am sending a patch that makes gtk3-demo RDEPEND on libgl.
