Yeah. The best place to have sent this would have been the visualpython-users

I haven't tried just linking them; I'm sure it would work if it was just
compiled against GtkGLArea5. You can try symlinking them. Or you can get the
source package, compile cvisualmodule.so (that's what will build in the
cvisual/ directory if you type 'make') and sticking that on top of the one
provided by the package (after doing a force-install).
I should produce some new packages that let you use gtkglarea5 (the current
version in Debian as well). I'll try to do that. I was hoping to finish up
my current feature (frame.color or whatever it is i'm doing) but i don't
know when i will -- i've been going crazy with IBM stuff as well.
