Please sync libqglviewer 2.3.17-1 (universe) from Debian experimental
(main)

Ubuntu is shipping a more than three-year-old version of libQGLViewer
(version 2.3.4 released in September 2009).

This means that modern software fails to run or build on Ubuntu: one
must download from the project homepage a recent version instead of
using the official repository version.

http://www.libqglviewer.com/

Please update this package.

Changelog entries since current raring version 2.3.4-4.2:

libqglviewer (2.3.17-1) experimental; urgency=low

  [ Artur R. Czechowski ]
  * New upstream release:
    + uses CONFIG += no_keywords so that the library can be used with Boost

  * Update Standards-Version to 3.9.3

    + Corrected upstream name in README.Debian

  * Tighten shlibs dependencies, as upstream confirmed no ABI compatibility
    is assured between even minor releases
  * Hardening the binaries
    + build depends on dpkg-dev > 1.16.1~
    + use dpkg-buildflags
    + pass build flags to qmake
