Comment(by nomeata):

 In Debian, the problems with the old version of OpenGL required by the
 platform and newer versions required to build on current GHC's, or as
 dependencies of libraries like gloss, remain.

 So we will have to upgrade OpenGL soon. This would make the platform, as
 shipped in Debian, diverge from what is officially included unless OpenGL
 gets dropped or also updated to the latest version (which will pull in
 Tensor and StateVar).

 Having a decision on this soon will help us stay in sync.
